American painter Edward Hopper once said, "Maybe I am not very
human--what I wanted to do was to paint sunlight on the side of a
house." Indeed, Hopper's canvases delineate a new physics of Modern
public space, in which the zones between people are not charged
with responsiveness (affection, animosity, attraction) but with
absolute indifference. Whether alone or grouped, Hopper's solitary
figures bespeak Modern metropolitan conditions with a clarity that
is deepened by his very specific ability to capture architecture,
interior space and, of course, light. The legacy of this vision,
coupled with Hopper's unique vocabulary, can be seen in the work of
numerous artists today, who are also featured here. Among them are
Ed Ruscha, Jim Jarmusch, Todd Haynes, Richard Prince, Rachel
Whiteread, Jeff Wall, Markus Schinwald, Philip Lorca diCorcia,
David Claerbout, Mark Lewis and Tim Eitel.
