HOPPER
Check out this slide show of the Edward Hopper retrospective at Boston's MFA.
Better yet, if you are in Boston, go to the show!
I have seen some of the paintings in the show.
Hopper has always managed to raise the hairs on the back of my neck.
He is awesome.
The commentary here is a bit tedious but quite informative, nonetheless.
I thought I knew a lot about Hopper but a lot of this was new.
I love the self portrait that kicks the slide show off.
He painted masterpieces until he was in his 80's.
How about that?
