David Hockney’s funeral takes place privately and is attended by only two people, according to multiple UK reports. Sources say the service has already occurred. The funeral is described as being held in line with Hockney’s final wishes, with only his partner and a close family member asked to attend. The two attendees are reported to be Jean-Pierre Gonçalves de Lima, Hockney’s 61-year-old partner, and Richard Hockney, his 33-year-old great-nephew. Richard Hockney is described as a photographer who worked as the artist’s assistant and sometimes modelled for him. Both are also identified in coverage as trustees of the David Hockney Foundation, which the artist established in 2008. While the funeral itself remains private, several outlets also note that memorial services are planned in the places where Hockney lived, though details of timing and locations are not consistent across the provided summaries. Overall, the reporting focuses on the small number of attendees and the private nature of the farewell.
