David Hockney is an American artist born in 1937 known for his realistic paintings and photomontages. Photomontage is a technique where multiple photographs are cut and joined together to form a composite image. Hockney helped popularize this technique by creating photomontages from multiple photos he took of the same scene or subject from different angles. The document provides examples of Hockney's artwork and instructions for a project where students take multiple photos and assemble them into a photomontage in Hockney's style using photo editing software.
