Edward Hopper: A collection of 236 paintings (HD)

"No one captured the isolation of the individual within the modern city
like Edward Hopper. His imagery of figures within urban settings go well
beyond their role as modern cityscapes, exposing the underbelly of the
human experience. So while his oeuvre officially falls within the rubric of
Realism, it offers a far more evocative look at life between the World Wars.
Indeed, by providing a minimum of action, stripping away almost any sign
of life or mobility, and adding dramatic means of representation with striking
lighting schemes in claustrophobic spaces, Hopper suggests something of the
psychological inner life of his subjects, leading the way towards Abstract
Expressionism. He injected significance, and the weight of the individual's
existential being in the modern metropolis or in country life, into what
otherwise might appear to be straight-forward images of everyday life."
