Hockney, In Verse, Paper Airplanes

Studio 360

Studio 360 waits for David Hockney. The artist returns to the English countryside where he grew up, to paint some of the most vivid landscapes of his career. In the documentary “Waiting for David Hockney” outsider artist Billy Pappas hopes his idol, Hockney, will come to see a single drawing Pappas has been working on for eight years. And we’ll meet the struggling single moms of Troy, NY through the eyes of a poet and a photographer.

“In Verse” is supported by Public Radio Makers Quest 2.0, an initiative of AIR, the Association of Independents in Radio. This project is made possible with funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and by a creative partnership with Virginia Quarterly Review.
