The Heard Museum presents David Hockney's first exhibition in Arizona
In celebration of its 90th anniversary, the Heard Museum is hosting an original exhibition: David Hockney’s Yosemite and Masters of California Basketry beginning. Yosemite Valley is the shared inspiration and connection point between the work of one of the greatest living artists and the Miwok and Mono Lake Paiute women who created some of the most spectacular examples of California basketry from the early to mid-20th century.
“The Heard Museum is honored to present the work of David Hockney in Phoenix, together with the outstanding work made by Indigenous artists of the Yosemite Valley,” said David M. Roche, Heard Museum Dickey Family Director and CEO. “David Hockney’s Yosemite and Masters of California Basketry realizes our vision of bringing a piece of Yosemite to Phoenix through the work of exceptional artists- who, despite working a century apart, drew their inspiration from one of the nation’s most iconic landmarks.”
