Editor’s Notebook

Hopper’s Places

When I was working on the video “Hopper and the Railroad,” I ordered Hopper’s Places, by Gail Levin. The book did not come until earlier this week, too late to reference for the video but it is worth a mention if you are interested in Hopper’s work.

Edward Hopper and the Railroad

Great photographs help us see things in new ways, and reveal things that might otherwise remain hidden, or escape our notice. This is, of course true of all art.

Edward Hopper was an American painter who lived from 1882 until 1967. and his work has had a profound influence on the visual arts over the years. Photographers often cite him as an inspiration for their own work.
