Edward Hopper's New York (NGA)

Edward Hopper's New York (NGA)

The National Gallery of Art has released a new video about the artist and his work and influence. In the podcast, which features more than 50 of Hopper's paintings and watercolors, Senior Curator Franklin Kelly discusses New York City, New England, and the cinema as Hopper saw and portrayed them—and as we view them today through his work. The filming of the pod cast was made possible by Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. Music composed and performed by Scott Silbert of the US Navy Band. Music engineered by David Morse of the US Navy Band.

He says, it's difficult to put into words, but superficially there is loneliness anyway, but I would articulate it as "temporary loneliness".

Looking into the mind of Hopper and finding loneliness is projection of our own mind.

Such arrogance calls for the investigation of our own mind. Psychotherapy is one way to understand why we project such attitudes.

At any rate, such behavior be it by a Senior Curator or young student, shows a complete lack of respect for the artist.
