Tate announced two David Hockney exhibitions in 2027. To coincide with David Hockney’s 90th birthday, Tate Modern will stage a multimedia installation in the Turbine Hall in the summer, and Tate Britain will open a career-spanning exhibition in the autumn.
At the Tate Modern in London, Hockey will present a multimedia installation that builds upon the British artist’s love of opera and his previous theatrical set designs. The work will take over the museum’s famed Turbine Hall, and will coincide with Hockney’s 90th birthday.
The Tate Britain will present a large-scale exhibition dedicated to Hockney in celebration of his birthday. The show will span his seven-decade career and feature over 200 works that explore the role of important relationships in his life, from family and friends to lovers.
