Documentary Film Series: Edward Hopper

Pocono Arts Council and Pocono Cinema and Cultural Center are collaborating to screen art documentary films on select Tuesdays starting at 7 pm. On Tuesday, February 6th, Edward Hopper: An American Love Story, directed by BAFTA award-winning director Phil Grabsky, will be screening at the Pocono Cinema. Tickets will be sold at the door, $10 for General Admission and $5 for Students with ID.
Hopper's work is the most recognisable art in America - popular, praised, and mysterious. Countless painters, photographers, filmmakers and musicians have been influenced by his art - but who was he, and how did a struggling illustrator create such a bounty of notable work?
This new film takes a deep look into Hopper's art, his life, and his relationships. From his early career as an illustrator; his wife giving up her own promising art career to be his manager; his critical and commercial acclaim; and in his own words - this film explores the enigmatic personality behind the brush.
Combined with expert interviews, diaries and a startling visual reflection of American life,
Hopper - An American love story brings to life America's arguably most influential artist.
