\n Last week, organisers announced it would be held in Robert’s Park, Saltaire, at 5.30pm on Friday as part of Bradford’s City of Culture celebrations.\n<\/p>\n
\n They have now confirmed a second showing of Painting the Sky at the park at 5.30pm on Thursday.\n<\/p>\n
\n A spokesperson for Bradford 2025 said the additional event had been announced due to “exceptional demand” and also in light of the current poor weather forecast for Friday.\n<\/p>\n
\n If conditions allow, Friday’s event will also go ahead as scheduled.\n<\/p>\n
\n Painting the Sky will see works from across Mr Hockney’s career recreated above us by more than 600 choreographed illuminated drones – from his vibrant Californian pool scenes to his bright landscape paintings of the Yorkshire countryside.\n<\/p>\n
\n Having embraced the latest digital technology for many years, this is the first time the artist’s works will be presented using drones.\n<\/p>\n
\n Mr Hockney was born in Bradford in 1937 and attended Bradford Grammar School before studying at Bradford School of Art from 1953 to 1957.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Last week, organisers announced it would be held in Robert’s Park, Saltaire, at 5.30pm on Friday as part…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":259355,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[6225,6485,6486,1120,96,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-259354","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arts-and-design","tag-arts","tag-arts-and-design","tag-artsanddesign","tag-design","tag-entertainment","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259354","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=259354"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259354\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/259355"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=259354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=259354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=259354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
