Dennis


When you think of Dennis Hopper, you think of an actor and not a photographer or artist. Having seen the current exhibition at ACMI (click here), I've changed my mind. Dennis Hopper and the New Hollywood is a fantastic exhibition showcasing an Hopper’s life’s work, his photography, collaborations and personal art collection. The work gives you a glimpse into Hollywood from the 60's through to present day, covering everything from the top down, wrinkles and all. The exhibition also includes paintings, photographs and sculptures by artists such as Andy Warhol, Ed Ruscha, Robert Rauschenberg, Roy Lichtenstein and Jenny Holzer. Well worth a detour (click here).
