PMA Films: Exhibition on Screen: Hopper: An American Love Story

  • Portland Museum of Art 7 Congress Square Portland, ME, 04101 United States (map)

NOTE: Due to the PMA’s weather-related delayed opening, this screening will begin at 2:15 pm.

SCREENING IN THE BERNARD OSHER FOUNDATION AUDITORIUM


[A]n impressive biography of American master Edward Hopper, whose quiet, precise and somehow otherworldly painting responds particularly well to Exhibition on Screen’s house style.
— Andrew Pulver, The Guardian

94 minutes. Not Rated. Directed by Phil Grabsky.

This new film takes a deep look into Hopper’s art, his life, and his relationships. From his early career as an illustrator; his wife giving up her own promising art career to be his manager; his critical and commercial acclaim; and in his own words – this film explores the enigmatic personality behind the brush…

Combined with expert interviews, diaries, and a startling visual reflection of American life, Hopper brings to life America’s arguably most influential artist.
