Meaning & Analysis

Dog Etching No. 14 depicts the two dogs curled up together in a bolster bed. A similar scene features in Hockney’s Dog 43 Poster created for the Salts Mill exhibition. While the artist’s paintings of sausage dogs are most often associated with the vibrant pastel colour palette exemplified by the exhibition poster, this etching offers a more minimalist take on the subject. Although affectionate and lighthearted in apppearance, the pet portraits are rooted deeply in the context of personal loss. Hockney started to paint his dogs after the death of his close friend Henry Geldzahler, the American curator of contemporary art. He commented in this context: “I wanted desperately to paint something loving… I felt such a loss of love I wanted to deal with it in some way. I realised I was painting my best friends. [...] They’re like little people to me. The subject wasn’t dogs but my love of the little creatures.”

  • British-born artist David Hockney is a kaleidoscopic force in the art world. Born in 1937, Hockney's vibrant palette and innovative techniques have left an indelible mark on contemporary art. A pioneer of the British Pop Art movement in the 1960s, he seamlessly transitioned through various styles, from photo collages to vivid landscapes. Renowned for his exploration of light and space, Hockney's versatility extends to painting, printmaking, photography, and stage design. A captivating storyteller, his works often capture the essence of modern life with a playful yet profound touch. With a career spanning decades, Hockney remains an enduring visionary in the ever-evolving art world.
