See Hockney at the Royal Academy of Arts

Event: David Hockney: A Bigger Picture
Date: to April 9th
Venue: Royal Academy of Arts

People planning to head to the capital in the next few months could choose to make the occasion even more special by booking to see an exhibition of the work of one of Britain's greatest living artists.

The Royal Academy of Arts will be hosting David Hockney: A Bigger Picture and it could be a cultural highlight for those families enjoying a London weekend break.

This display focuses on the Yorkshire-born painter's landscape work, including older paintings as well as new drawings and films.

Reviewing the show the Guardian said it was "radiantly bright, spectacularly large in both scale and extent and ebullient to the point of jubilation".

People looking to make the most of their London weekend break may want to follow the show with a meal at Roux at The Landau.

Families can then enjoy the warmth and comfort of one of the Oxford Street hotels such as The Langham.
