Briefly

London's Tate Modern will be transformed by a vast David Hockney exhibition in 2027 to celebrate the artist's 90th birthday
"The Turbine Hall extravaganza follows on from 'Bigger and Closer', the Hockney showcase that took over the Lightroom in King's Cross in 2023. While that exhibition breathed new life into his paintings and iPad drawings of Los Angeles, Yorkshire and Normandy, the Tate's summer 2027 celebration will home in on a very specific period in the artist's career."
"To pay tribute to this lesser-explored period in Hockney's career, the Turbine Hall will be transformed into a vast, immersive opera experience, with the set designs projected onto the walls of the iconic space. Tate reckons it will offer punters 'a thrilling experience of music and art in motion'."
Tate Modern will transform its Turbine Hall into an immersive tribute to David Hockney in summer 2027, celebrating his 90th birthday. This exhibition will focus on Hockney's opera set designs created between 1975 and 1992 for prestigious opera houses. The immersive experience will project his set designs onto the walls, offering a unique blend of music and art. Following this, Tate Britain will present a career-spanning retrospective featuring over 200 artworks from Hockney's extensive portfolio.
