DAVID HOCKNEY
Born in England in 1937, Hockney was one of the few artists who has embraced both art and photography effectively. He uniquely developed photomontages of visually interesting subjects. Hockney used hundred of shots of a single scene or still life—his goal was to create large mosaics of high visual interest using very small clips of a scene. I love Hockney's works, both the grids and collages. All the photomontages create illusions as first glance and cause the viewer to look very carefully.
