[Introduction to the Work]
The multifaceted talent of Dennis Hopper
——actor, director, photographer, painter, and collector——is showcased in this monograph on the American icon.

Dennis Hopper, through his role in the groundbreaking film "Easy Rider" (1969), became an icon for some of the greatest contemporary directors such as Coppola, Peckinpah, Altman, Wenders, Lynch, and Ferrara.

Hopper's original ideas, a favorite of the industry yet also an outsider, transformed the very medium of film.

Having created and collected art for decades, Hopper was also a pioneering collector of masters such as Basquiat, Roy Lichtenstein, Jasper Johns, and Warhol, from whom he purchased the first soup can artwork.

This book introduces the art and artists that influenced his film work as an actor and director.

Hopper's photographs of silver screen stars are juxtaposed with paintings collected from famous artists, shots from his own film sets, and a jointly signed art installation with Marcel Duchamp.

Featuring an exclusive long interview with the artist/actor/director, this book provides privileged insight into this era's great iconoclast, revealing the connection between Hopper's art and film career.
