After last having a major exhibition in Canada almost a quarter-century ago, legendary British artist David Hockney returns to these shores this fall with a big, audacious show of vibrant, colour-drenched drawings at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto.
Not drawings on paper, mind you – that is so 20th-century! – but drawings done on iPhone and iPad. Called "David Hockney’s Fresh Flowers", the exhibition will feature 100 iPhone drawings displayed on 20 iPod Touches, plus 100 iPad drawings displayed on 20 iPads. In addition, there will be a triptych slide show of 169 other images and eight large-scale animated projections of some of Hockney’s most recent pixilated drawings.
