A survey show of artist/ actor Dennis Hopper opened today at the Geffen Contemporary in downtown L.A. Artist/ Filmmaker Julian Schnabel curated this impressive exhibition & gave a talk about his selections & Hopper's body of work. I liked the pieces heavily influenced by Marcel Duchamp in his way of appropriating common objects. The piece shown in the last photo is called "Bomb Drop" 1967-68 which was quite a statement as one enters the hall. The self-portrait is beautiful as are the large-scale billboard paintings. This is the first sighting of Jeffrey Deitch (in the yellow suit & his signature round glasses) as MOCA's new director - photo 1 seen here chatting with Julian Schnabel. This show ends Sept. 26th, 2010.
