VG+, appears unread. Illustrated wraps. 256 pp. Profusely illustrated in color, some bw. Published to accompany an exhibition held at the Tate Gallery of Art in London in 2004. 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. Contents as follows: The elation of sunlight / Sheena Wagstaff--Rothko's Hopper: a strange wholeness / David Anfam--Hopper's melancholic gaze / Margaret Iversen--Two or three things I know about Edward Hopper / Peter Wollen--Hopper's look / Brian O'Doherty.
