A commercial art newsletter dated August 21, 2026, announced the availability of recent works by David Hockney, Takashi Murakami and Alex Katz. The release presents the offering as a selection of newly available pieces rather than as an exhibition or public programme.
Hockney is represented by four works: ‘An Image of Gregory’, ‘Apple, Grapes, Lemon on a Table’, ‘Autumn Trees Near Thixendale’ and ‘Beach Umbrella’. The titles indicate a range of subjects associated with the British artist’s practice, including portraiture, still life, landscape and the beach, although the supplied announcement does not provide images, dates of production, dimensions or media for the works.
The selection also includes two works by Murakami. One is titled ‘Hiroshige's 100 Famous Views of Edo—Japonisme Reconsidered—Armor-Hanging Pine, Hakkeizaka (Tree, Flower Child, Kaikai Kiki)’. The other is ‘Futura, Intermezzo TFWHT (White, Kaikai Kiki)’. Both titles connect the release to recurring elements in Murakami’s work, including dialogue with Japanese art history and the artist’s graphic and character-based visual language, but no further curatorial or technical information is given in the source material.
Katz appears in the release with ‘White Visor’, a title that adds a single work by the American painter to the group. The announcement places all three artists within one commercial availability update, without describing a shared theme, a joint presentation or a physical venue.
The source material identifies the works by title and artist and states that they are available. It does not disclose prices, edition numbers, production dates, materials, authenticity documentation, shipping terms or the duration of availability. The linked material supplied with the announcement likewise provides no additional textual details that can be independently reported. The release therefore functions primarily as a market notice for works attributed to Hockney, Murakami and Katz.
