Edward Hopper
Or ... The painter of solitude!
Indeed, as the fabric chosen to illustrate this topic,
The characters he painted seem "suspended" ...
... In their thoughts, loneliness, boredom?
Rather than a long speech, I leave those
or those who discover this artist,
get lost in the world he painted ...
Hotel Room (1931)
Nighthawks (1942) A World
melancholy and silent ...
Realistic and poignant ...
A world where loneliness, alienation, isolation and lack of communication between individuals are overwhelming.
This melancholy realism may be interpreted as "sad."
It is only the image of modern man ...
I hope not to get the blues,
but could not resist the urge to share these images with you!
Moreover, for those who have had the chance to see the film "Bagdad Cafe", very inspired by the world of Hooper, he is the evidence of a "possible solution"!
