  • Resumen
    • The writer discusses the recent paintings of Howard Hodgkin. The artist has stated that he is seeking more “actuality” in his recent paintings, and indeed, in a group of paintings finished in the past couple of years, an earlier concern with human subjects, memory, and emotion has yielded to the presence of simple objects—a shift from an existential to a more ontological form of painting. This new objecthood reveals a more direct engagement both with things and nature, and consolidates a new period in Hodgkin's work, a remarkable achievement for a painter who has been working for some 60 years. The writer discusses some examples of these recent paintings.
