Synopsis
Edward Hopper (1882-1967) made the visual iconography of the American city his own. All-night diners, filling stations, motel rooms and office interiors take on the foreboding atmosphere of abandoned stage sets, onto which his isolated human protagonists seem to have wandered.
Fully illustrated in colour, with oils, etchings, drawings and watercolours from throughout his career, and with essays by leading authorities on American art, this is a comprehensive survey of one of the iconic artists of the twentieth century.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good Plus. Edward Hopper (illustrator). First Edition. 2004. 256pp. "More than any other artist, Edward Hopper (1882-1967) made the visual iconography of the American city his own. All-night diners, filling stations, motel rooms and office interiors take on the foreboding atmosphere of abandoned stage sets, onto which his isolated human protagonists seem to have wandered. Although rooted in twentieth-century America, his images have a timeless quality that has struck a chord with a huge international audience. In this major catalogue, Hopper's relationship with film and theatre is explored, along with his fascination with architecture, advertising, travel and popular culture. The receptions his paintings have received from artists, critics and a wider public are examined, and the sense of melancholy that characterises much of his work is placed in a historical tradition reaching back to Dürer. Fully illustrated in colour, with oils, etchings, drawings and watercolours from throughout his career, and with essays by leading authorities on American art, this is a comprehensive and engaging survey of one of the iconic artists of the twentieth century." The jacket has slight sunning to the spine and a crease down the front inner flap. The book and unclipped dust jacket are both otherwise in excellent condition. Several related newspaper clippings and a guide to the exhibition are loosely inserted to the rear. PLEASE NOTE: Heavy book so extra will be needed for shipping to non-UK customers.
