Wonderful article! I did not expect to read this on HN today at all. I expect anyone with the undying love for Hopper’s work that I have to immediately imagine the harsh realities that produced these illustrations but alas I am mistaken. Hopper was not a social artist! He was an embodiement of the eye, a conduit of visual experience. I would also argue Hopper was not a storyteller! He was more like a pornographer of light than a storyteller, and this is a beautiful thing. https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_MLACmwsxaww/RjtOQOTDtGI/AAAAAAAAAUc/s_sNdmpG4PE/s400/04hopp_CA1.650.jpg https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_MLACmwsxaww/RjtOQOTDtGI/AAAAAAAAA...
