Hockney’s private farewell: two mourners honor a global artistic legacy

David Hockney’s funeral was held privately with only his partner, JP Gonçalves de Lima, and his great-nephew Richard Hockney in attendance, per his wishes. A London memorial in spring 2027 and further services in Yorkshire, Paris and Los Angeles will celebrate his life. Much of his work was donated to foundations, and the art world has seen a surge in demand for his pieces after his death, with major exhibitions planned at Tate Britain, Tate Modern and a Serpentine show.
