"A revealing exploration of Edward Hopper's inspired relationship to New York City
through his paintings, drawings, prints, and never-before-published archival materials
This engaging book delves into the iconic relationship between Edward Hopper (1882-1967)
and New York City. This comprehensive look at an essential aspect of the revered American
artist's life reveals how Hopper's experience of New York's spaces, sensations, and
architecture shaped his vision and served as a backdrop for his distillations of the
urban experience. During sidewalk strolls and elevated train rides, Hopper sketched
the city's many windowed facades. Exterior views gave way to interior lives, forging
one of Hopper's defining preoccupations: the convergence of public and private. These
permeable walls allowed Hopper to evoke the perplexing awareness of being alone in
a crowd that is synonymous with modern urban life. Drawing on the vast resources of
the Whitney Museum of American Art, the largest repository of Hopper's work, and the
recently acquired gift of the Sanborn Hopper Archive, this book features more than
300 illustrations and fresh insight from authoritative and emerging scholars"
