Hockney/Origins: Early Works from the Roy B. and Edith J. Simpson Collection, The Bruce Museum

Join Wilton Library in learning about some of the early works of David Hockney. The expanded galleries of the Bruce Museum’s William L. Richter Art Wing have allowed Dr. Margarita Karasoulas, the Bruce’s Curator of Art, the space to explore the life and career of this prolific and innovative pop artist. Hockney/Origins: Early Works from the Roy B. and Edith J. Simpson Collection contains works created by Hockney from the 1960s to the 1980s, pivotal years in his career. These pieces illustrate Hockney’s ability and fluidity in a myriad of mediums and his wit, humor, and tenderness as a friend and artist.
