Lit with the bright glow of California sunshine, Montcalm Interior with Two Dogs from 1988 is a large scale painting of both profound emotive depth and peerless formal execution from the inimitable oeuvre of David Hockney. Painted in the same year as the artist’s first, critically acclaimed US retrospective at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, this painting is a truly exceptional example of the rich color palette, complex compositional structure and intimately significant subject matter that characterise the artist’s most iconic masterpieces. Montcalm Interior with Two Dogs was prominently featured in the artist’s widely acclaimed 1992 retrospective David Hockney, organized by Fundación Juan March, Madrid and traveling to both the Palais des Beaux-Arts, Brussels and the Palau de la Virreina, Barcelona. Amongst the most exquisitely tender renderings Hockney would create of his beloved home on Montcalm Avenue, the painting brings the viewer into the artist’s personal habitat.
 
David Hockney (born 1937) is one of the most influential 20th century British artists. He has explored a diverse range of techniques over the years including painting, printmaking, drawing, set design, videography, photography and digital art. He was an innovative printmaker with technology early in his career which has gained recent traction again drawing on his iPhone and iPad. Hockney explores everything from still life and domestic scenes to portraits and landscapes, whilst also addressing themes in his own life such as sexuality. Hockney’s style is iconic and recognisable with its warm feeling and lively, colourful palette. In 2018, Hockney’s Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures) became the most expensive artwork by a living artist to be sold at auction when it sold in New York for $90 million. Hockney’s work is held in countless international collections and museums.
