Dennis Hopper
Curator Petra Giloy-Hirtz recounts the remarkable story of the recent discovery of actor and director Dennis Hopper’s archive of photographs from the 1960s.
Actor and director Dennis Hopper dedicated himself to photography from 1961 to 1967. These vintage photographs, once described as ‘small movies,’ lay hidden in boxes until their discovery after his death in 2010. Giloy-Hirtz introduces us to the cultural and political subjects of Hopper's camera: his circle of actor, artist, musician, and poet friends, his travels and America’s Civil Rights movement.
Booking is strongly advised for lunchtime lectures.
