Edward Hopper’s New York, on view at the Whitney Museum of American Art
from October 19, 2022, through March 5, 2023,
offers an
unprecedented examination of Hopper’s life and
work in the city that he called home for nearly
six decades (1908–67). The exhibition charts
the artist’s enduring fascination with the city through more than 200 paintings, watercolors, prints, and drawings from the Whitney’s
preeminent collection of Hopper’s work, loans
from public and private collections, and archival
materials including printed ephemera,
correspondence, photographs, and notebooks. From
early sketches to paintings from late in his
career, Edward Hopper’s New
York reveals a vision
of the metropolis that is as much a
manifestation of Hopper himself as it is a record of a
changing city, whose perpetual and sometimes
tense reinvention feels particularly relevant
today. Further Information
