He first emerged in the early 1960s during the height of British pop, then moved to Los Angeles in 1964, where he famously painted a series of swimming pool pictures. Alongside the classic genres of portraiture and landscape, he always kept evolving his art, using technologies such as Polaroids, photocopiers and fax machines, digital video, or the iPhone and iPad as tools for his painting. Since his first big survey exhibition, which in 1970 traveled Europe from the Whitechapel Gallery in London, he has been one of the most widely shown and popular artists of our time.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"read-more__biography--wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-uw-rm-heading=\"level\" aria-level=\"3\" role=\"heading\" class=\"read-more__biography--title\"\u003eThe editor\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"read-more__biography--item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"read-more__biography--text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHans Werner Holzwarth\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a book designer and editor specializing in contemporary art and photography.
