Hodgkin, RIP

LONDON – It was not foreseen that this exhibition of his portraits would be considered as a posthumous tribute. Howard Hodgkin (1932-2017), one of the most valued British artists of the post-war period, with a dazzling palette, died a few days before the opening, on 9 March. He is considered mostly an abstract artist, but he also produced portraits, of which a selection is gathered here.
Howard Hodgkin, Absent Friends, at the National Portrait Gallery, from 23 March to 18 June 2017.
