| Paris, Banks of the Seine | Eiffel tower by Day 2010. an example of Hockey's exploration of the possibilities of Digital Art using his iPad "The composition juxtaposes the historical Eiffel Tower with the modern medium, creating a dialogue between past and present. Hockney's use of digital colour brings the Parisian sky to life, infusing the scene with energy that transcends the static nature of the subject. By printing this digital creation, Hockney bridges the gap between new and traditional media, challenging perceptions of digital tools in fine art, reflecting the ongoing evolution of contemporary printmaking techniques" | |
