Artnet Auctions is staging its Contemporary Editions sale, now live for bidding through November 19, 2025, featuring three works by David Hockney: an iPad drawing titled *16th February, 2021, More Flowers in a Glass Vase* (est. $40,000–$60,000), a digitally stitched photograph *In the Studio, December 2017* (est. $50,000–$70,000), and a lithograph *Pretty Tulips* (1969) (est. $35,000–$55,000). The sale highlights Hockney’s ongoing experimentation with digital tools and printmaking, offering collectors accessible entry points into his six-decade career.
The sale matters because it underscores the sustained market demand for David Hockney, one of the most significant living artists, while also demonstrating how digital mediums like iPad drawings have become a viable and collectible segment of the art market. By featuring works across different media and price points, Artnet Auctions is tapping into a broader collector base, making Hockney’s work more accessible beyond the high-end auction prices seen at Christie’s.
