Dennis Hopper carved out a place in Hollywood history, with roles in classic films like
Apocalypse Now,
Blue Velvet,
True Romance and !Easy Rider!. He is less well known, though no less respected, for his work as a photographer.
This exhibition brings together over 400 images, taken during one of the most creative periods of his life in the 1960s. Every image you’ll see was chosen by Hopper himself for his first major exhibition in 1970 and is the vintage print he produced for that occasion.
A fascinating personal diary of one of the great countercultural figures of the period and a vivid portrait of 1960s America.
