Lougher Contemporary is offering three works from the series by private sale: 'Untitled No. 1,' 'Untitled No. 5' and 'Untitled No. 16.'
In April 2010, David Hockney bought one of the first iPads; within months, he had carried it into Yosemite National Park, a landscape he had first explored with his camera in 1982, and begun drawing straight from the motif. The result, 'The Yosemite Suite,' is described as one of the founding bodies of work within his digital decade.
Made just a year before 'The Arrival of Spring' on the same device, the suite has traded far more quietly than its celebrated sister series. The drawings were printed at scale in editions of 25, with each one signed by the artist.
'Untitled No. 1' is described as the opening image of the suite, showing a blue mountain wall rising behind a lodge that is described as sunlit. 'Untitled No. 16' presents an immersive view from inside the forest, with dark branches set against foliage identified as sea-green.
