Sad news.
11 June 2026. David Hockney died (aged 88). He was one of the most influential British artists of the 20th century. In 2018, Hockney’s 1972 work Portrait of an Artist sold at Christie’s in New York City for £70M becoming the most expensive painting by a living artist.

I am especially glad now in retrospect that I said yesterday on BBC that I rather agreed with the Pope on current world politics (delusions of omnipotence etc). Not always on papal side, but I am here!

HOME.
The Artemis II crew has arrived back on Earth, ending a nearly 10-day journey around the Moon. The trip took them farther into space than humans have ever gone before, and now they're safely home with us.

Excellent article about Mary Beard in Today's Sunday Times. I've been honoured to call her my friend since we met exactly 8 years ago, all thanks to Twitter as it was then. Few people are as eager to share knowledge, so generous with their time or so resilient through the fallout
