Edward Hopper (1882-1967) is widely acknowledged as one of America’s most important painters. A large selection of his world-famous works, usually only on view in the US, will be presented at the Fondation Beyeler. The more than 60 paintings and watercolours on loan from museums and private collections feature iconic masterpieces as well as magnificent surprises. This will be the first time an exhibition focuses on Hopper’s fascinating landscapes, in which he explored the relation between man and nature. Hopper’s favourite motifs include lighthouses, beach houses and sailboats, as well as streets, gas stations, barns and railroads, After the exhibition we will be having coffee and cake at the museum coffee shop.
