20. The Colourful World of David Hockney with Hannah Lingard

Welcome back art history lovers to the Jo's Art History Podcast!

It's episode 20 and today I sit down with British artist Hannah Lingard to discuss the colourful world of David Hockney!

A key figure in British contemporary art - Hockney’s love of colour is one of the artist’s defining features!

Something else Hockney is known for is his love of exploration and not pigeonholing his artistic practise - something Hannah and I both love about the artist!!

So join Hannah and I as we discuss the colourful world of David Hockney, his love of exploration, iPad drawings and why you should never stop challenging yourself!
