Edward Hopper: From City to Coast, the artist’s first solo exhibition held in Korea, looks back on the artist’s 65-year painting career, focusing on those places in Paris, New York, northern New England, and Cape Cod whose traces were captured in his works. As he regularly traveled between his longtime home in New York City and various rural and coastal retreats, these places played an integral part in expanding Hopper’s artistic horizons. This exhibition presents 270 pieces spanning Hopper’s entire life, including drawings, prints, oil paintings, watercolors, and materials from the Sanborn Hopper Archive divided into eight sections to provide a faithful overview of the artist’s life and artistic universe.
