A Polaroid photograph of Dennis Hopper wearing a white shirt, brown vest, and a cowboy hat that was taken by Andy Warhol and signed by the artist in black ink across the bottom. The photograph is believed to have been taken in 1977. In the white margin at the top, someone, likely Hopper, has written the word "HELP!" in blue ink. The back of the Polaroid is stamped Polacolor Type 108.Warhol, whose name is synonymous with the Pop Art movement of the second half of the twentieth century, was known to carry a Polaroid camera with him from the late 1950s until his death in 1987.

Hopper was a respected art collector and an early champion of Warhol's talent and was filmed in 1963 as part of Warhol's famous "Screen Test" series. The two remained lifelong friends. Warhol took many Polaroids of Hopper over the years, but few, if any, others are known to have been signed by him.3.5 x 4.5 inchesPROVENANCE Property from the Life and Career of Dennis Hopper

The experimental, metafictional drama (which focuses on a movie stuntman in Peru following the death of a fellow stuntman) was a critical and financial disappointment upon release, but has since been re-evaluated and garnered a cult following.11 x 14 inches (largest)PROVENANCE Property from the Life and Career of Dennis Hopper

Following the screening, however, Hopper bused the students out to the race track where he reproduced an act he had seen in a traveling road show as a child: he lit six sticks of dynamite beneath a chair he was seated on. The trick works because if the dynamite is pointed outwards, the explosion creates a vacuum in the center, leaving the person on the chair unharmed. The scene was described thus by a Rice News student correspondent: "Dennis Hopper, at one with the shock wave, was thrown headlong in a halo of fire. For a single, timeless instant he looked like Wile E. Coyote, frazzled and splayed by his own petard. Then billowing smoke hid the scene. We all rushed forward, past the police, into the expanding cloud of smoke, excited, apprehensive, and no less expectant than we had been before the explosion. Were we looking for Hopper or pieces we could take home as souvenirs? Later Hopper would say blowing himself up was one of the craziest things he has ever done, and that it was weeks before he could hear again. At the moment, though, none of that mattered. He had been through the thunder, the light, and the heat, and he was still in one piece. And when Dennis Hopper staggered out of that cloud of smoke his eyes were glazed with the thrill of victory and spinout."11 x 8.5 inches (largest)PROVENANCE Property from the Life and Career of Dennis Hopper
