HOPPER BOOK of POSTCARDS

| Before
Edward Hopper, American landscape art sought dramatic
topography and an idyllic, idealized nature, genteelly
ignoring ordinary people and their prosaic endeavors
and by-products. Hopper (1882-1967) answered that
romantic tendency with a realism in which the ordinary
- houses and shopfronts, trestles and telephone poles
- became an essential element of his work. For most
of his 60-year career, Hopper divided his time between
New York City and New England. He liked the straightforward
light of Maine's big skies, and in his paintings the
sky becomes an active element of the composition,
raking farmhouse and sand dune with sunlight. By contrast,
Hopper's city scenes are lit by a sun whose light
is filtered by big-city particulates and big-city
blues. It illuminates storefronts and tablecloths
with a gentle, elegiac touch. Presented here are thirty
classic Hoppers, urban and pastoral, from the world's
largest repository of Hopper's work. Published with
The Whitney Museum of American Art. Size: 17.5cm x

"Having
the van visiting the school was a quick & convenient
way to access great resources. We went shopping instead
of a staff meeting!"
