David Hockney | Stanley Sitting Up
Hockney first began to experiment with the fax machine in the 1980s, transmitting drawings around the globe to friends and galleries alike.
Created in 1989 by David Hockney, ‘Stanley Standing Up’ is a fax print of one of his beloved dachshunds, made during his period of experimenting with office technology as a means of creating new art. Rather than using the technology to transmit existing artworks, Hockney created works like this specifically intended to be sent by fax.
