Synopsis

For readers who have little time to spare and are averse to art-world jargon, this series aims to provide an entertaining guide to individual artists and pop culture. Each volume presents an account of the artist's life, personal and professional anecdotes, concise definitions of cultural and social movements that shaped the artist's work, and colour reproductions. This study of the American realist Edward Hopper discusses why his paintings can leave viewers feeling lonely and alienated; why his art can seem familiar, yet elusive; why he was smitten with films, sex and car travel; and why so many women in Hopper's paintings look alike.
