Edward Hopper

Last weekend the MFA opened its Hopper Exhibition. I have to be honest, I was never really excited about Hopper's work before I had the chance to work on the online portions of the exhibition. Now I really appreciate it.



He does such an amazing job of implying so much in a painting. You really get the feeling that there's a story just beneath the surface, that these are real people or places. I can't help but wonder what happened before or what's about to happen.

The lights, shadows, composition and colors are all wonderful. You should really go check out the show. Ann and I got a sneak peak before it opened but Nikole and I are going to see it this weekend in all it's restrained glory.


By the way... check out the Hopper microsite that Ann and I worked on. Unfortunately we had to take a few things off due to rights and licensing but we'll be adding a few more things soon.
