David Hockney’s art has always danced between playfulness and precision, colour and clarity — and nowhere is that spirit more alive than in his poster work. Off the Wall gathers the vibrant, inventive posters Hockney created between 1987 and 1994, presenting them as both graphic design masterworks and intimate snapshots of an artist in constant motion.
This beautifully produced volume showcases full‑page reproductions alongside a complete visual index, revealing the breadth of Hockney’s imagination: exhibition posters bursting with colour, theatrical designs alive with personality, and images that blur the line between fine art and public communication. Brian Baggott’s curated collection highlights how Hockney used the poster form not just to advertise events, but to experiment, provoke, and delight.
A feast for art lovers, designers, and Hockney admirers alike, this book celebrates the poster as a canvas — and Hockney as one of its most joyful and inventive practitioners.
