Edward Hopper

Edward Hopper ticket Cologne

I visited Museum Ludwig's Edward Hopper exhibition yesterday. Hopper (1882-1967), most famous for Nighthawks (1942), focused his art on American civilisation. His paintings seem to tell a story. I found topics like loneliness, the "beauty" of American cities, non-communication, theatre/movies and a lot of others. The exhibition will continue until January 9th, 2005. From what I can remember, the following pieces are exhihbited:

  • Summer Interior (1909)

  • Sunday (1926)

  • Automat (1927)

  • Lighthouse Hill (1927) (my personal favorite)

  • The City (1927)

  • Night Windows (1928)

  • Early Sunday Morning (1930)

  • Hotel Room (1931)

  • Cape Cod Evening(1939)

  • Office at Night (1940)

  • Hotel Lobby (1943)

  • Cape Cod Morning (1950)

  • Hotel by a Railroad (1952)

  • Morning Sun (1952)

  • Office in a Small City (1953)

  • Hotel Window (1956)

  • A Woman in the Sun (1961)

  • New York Office (1962)

  • Two Comedians (1965)
