David Hockney: A Bigger Picture(2009)

David Hockney: A Bigger Picture is a documentary that follows the legendary British artist's creative reinvention after 25 years in California. Filmed over three years, it captures Hockney's return to England and his decision to paint from scratch as he approaches 70, working through Yorkshire's seasons and unpredictable weather. The result is the largest picture ever created outdoors. The film balances intimate portraiture with the story of a homecoming, revealing what drives one of the world's greatest living artists as he races against time. Winner of the Best Essay award at Montreal's International Festival for Films on Art, the documentary was nominated for Best Arts Documentary by both the Grierson and International Emmy Awards. Originally premiered on BBC1, this extended 60-minute version offers an unprecedented glimpse into a major artist at work.
