Reseña: During the 1960s Dennis Hopper carried a camera everywhere-on film sets and locations at parties in diners bars and galleries driving on freeways and walking on political marches. He photographed movie idols pop stars writers artists girlfriends and complete strangers. Along the way he captured some of the most intriguing moments of his generation with a keen and intuitive eye. A reluctant icon at the epicenter of that decades cultural upheaval Hopper documented the likes of Tina Turner in the studio Andy Warhol at his first West Coast show Paul Newman on set and Martin Luther King during the Civil Rights March from Selma to Montgomery Alabama. From a selection of photographs compiled by Hopper and gallerist Tony Shafrazi this extensive volume finally back in print in a new edition distills the essence of Hoppers prodigious photographic career. Also included are introductory essays by Shafrazi and legendary West Coast art pioneer Walter Hopps as well as an extensive biography and new afterword by journalist Jessica Hundley. With excerpts from Victor Bockriss interviews of Hoppers famous subjects friends and family this volume revives an unprecedented exploration of the life and mind of one of Americas most fascinating personalities.
