爱德华•霍普（Edward Hopper）举世闻名的绘画清楚地表达对现代生活的另类看法。因为其令人印象深刻的主题，独立的绘画词汇和对色彩的精湛运用，霍普至今仍影响着二十世纪上半叶的美国形象。他以插画家的身份开始职业生涯，并因油画闻名全球。它们证明了他对色彩效果的浓厚兴趣以及他对描绘光影的精通。拜耶勒基金会（Fondation Beyeler）将在2020年春季举办大型展览展示霍珀（Hopper）描绘的广阔的美国风景为主题的**画作。本目录汇集了展览中展出的20世纪10年代至20世纪60年代所有的油画，水彩画和素描，并以几篇侧重于描绘风景这个主题的短文作为补充。

Edward Hopper’s world-famous paintings articulate an idiosyncratic view of modern life. With his impressive subjects, independent pictorial vocabulary, and virtuoso play of colors, Hopper continues to influence to this day the image of the United States in the first half of the twentieth century. He began his career as an illustrator and became famous around the globe for his oil paintings. They testify to his great interest in the effects of color and his mastery in depicting light and shadow. The Fondation Beyeler is devoting its large exhibition in the spring of 2020 to Hopper’s iconic images of the vast American landscape. The catalogue gathers together all of the paintings, watercolors, and drawings from the 1910s to the 1960s on display in the exhibition, and supplements them with essays focused on the subject of depicting landscape.
