About the Item

The Metropolitan Opera Poster designed by David Hockney in 1982 is a notable artwork that combines offset lithograph and silkscreen printing techniques. The figures and images within the poster are created using offset lithography, while the border and text are silkscreened, providing a dynamic and visually appealing contrast. This poster was designed for the production of the ballet Parade at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, which featured choreography by Leonide Massine and music by Erik Satie. The production was inspired by the avant-garde spirit of Picasso's work, reflecting Hockney’s ability to blend classical themes with modern artistic techniques. The poster is not only a testament to Hockney’s versatility as an artist but also a significant piece of cultural history, representing a collaboration between renowned figures in the worlds of art and performing arts. Printed in England, this poster has dimensions of 96.5 cm by 60.3 cm, making it a substantial and impressive piece for display​. Shipping and Handling: We ship Worldwide.
