Synopsis
Hopper made the unique visual landscape of the American city all his own. All-night diners, filling stations, motel rooms and deserted offices are populated by isolated, brooding figures. This work on the quintessentially American artist accompanies a retrospective at Tate Modern, Summer 2004.

Edward Hooper
Seller: Crappy Old Books, Barry, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Fair. Edward Hooper (2005) by Sheena Wagstaff is one of those elegant little art books that looks as if it belongs on a pristine gallery coffee table, preferably beside a cup of something impossibly artisanal and a person who casually says things like ?the texture of the light really speaks to me.? Fortunately for the rest of us, this copy has escaped that fate and instead found its way into the much more democratic ecosystem of Crappy Old Books , where it can be appreciated by anyone with an interest in art, curiosity, or simply a fondness for books that look clever on a shelf. Published by Tate, this volume explores the work of Edward Hooper, an artist whose photographs often capture the quiet poetry of ordinary places. Wagstaff?s text guides the reader through Hooper?s visual world with the kind of thoughtful commentary that makes you pause and look again at scenes you might otherwise pass by without a second thought. Empty streets, industrial corners, overlooked landscapes ? suddenly they start to feel deliberate, atmospheric, and just a little mysterious. It?s the sort of book that quietly encourages the reader to slow down. Where some art books shout with colour and spectacle, Hooper?s work tends to whisper. The result is a collection that feels contemplative rather than flashy, as if the photographs are inviting you to stand still for a moment and reconsider the beauty of places that normally go unnoticed. Of course, this particular copy arrives in fair condition , which in the language of Crappy Old Books means it has clearly lived a life. Perhaps it spent time on that hypothetical gallery coffee table after all, quietly absorbing intellectual conversation, biscuit crumbs, and the occasional splash of espresso. The pages remain perfectly readable, and the artwork is still very much intact, which is the important part when the whole point of a book is to look at pictures. So if you enjoy photography, contemporary art, or the gentle thrill of owning a Tate publication without paying gallery-shop prices, this slightly battle-hardened copy of Edward Hooper is ready to step up. It may not be pristine, but then again, neither are most of the places Hooper photographed?and that, in its own way, feels entirely appropriate. Seller Inventory # 5874
