His style can be characterized in the genre of landscape print, innovated by his early contemporary Hokusai (1760-1849). Hiroshige can be attributed to having created over 5,000 prints of everyday life and landscape in Edo-period Japan. Inspired by Katsushika Hokusai's popular Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, Hiroshige took a softer, less formal approach with his Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido (1833-34), completed after a trip he made between Edo and Kyoto, which is acclaimed to be perhaps his finest achievement.He made numerous other journeys within Japan and issued a series of such prints, expressing in great detail the poetic sensibility inherent in the climate and topography of Japan and its people. Hiroshige's prolific output was somewhat due to his being paid very little per series. Still, this did not deter him, as he receded to Buddhist monkhood in 1856 to complete his brilliant and lasting One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (1856-58). He died in 1858, 10 years before Monet, Van Gogh, and a lot of Impressionist painters became eager collectors of Japanese art.Literature comparison: A near identical print is in the collection of The British Museum, Museum number 1915,0823,0.758.

His style can be characterized in the genre of landscape print, innovated by his early contemporary Hokusai (1760-1849). Hiroshige can be attributed to having created over 5,000 prints of everyday life and landscape in Edo-period Japan. Inspired by Katsushika Hokusai's popular Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, Hiroshige took a softer, less formal approach with his Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido (1833-34), completed after a trip he made between Edo and Kyoto, which is acclaimed to be perhaps his finest achievement. He made numerous other journeys within Japan and issued a series of such prints, expressing in great detail the poetic sensibility inherent in the climate and topography of Japan and its people.Hiroshige's prolific output was somewhat due to his being paid very little per series. Still, this did not deter him, as he receded to Buddhist monkhood in 1856 to complete his brilliant and lasting One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (1856-58). He died in 1858, 10 years before Monet, Van Gogh, and a lot of Impressionist painters became eager collectors of Japanese art.Dimensions: Image size 35 x 22 cm

A note written on the front cover in blue ink directs his attention to page 21 where there is a short review for The Last Movie (Universal Pictures, 1971), which reads in full:"This film by Dennis Hopper, viciously attacked by the critics, is playing at the 59th Street Twins on 3rd Ave., and I hated it till I met and interviewed Dennis Hopper recently and found him to be a lovable egomaniac. I still hate his film, but think I love Dennis, which either makes me a faggot or a confused critic. Only time will tell."PROVENANCE Property from the Life and Career of Dennis Hopper

Lot 1226

A group of materials from the lengthy and tortured editing of Dennis Hopper's The Last Movie (Universal Pictures, 1971), including equipment and paper items. Includes a film reel labeled "The Last Movie," two film splicers (Neumade Film Splicer No. 50X437 and a Hollywood Film Company splicer TS-1, Serial Number 8587) and one small counter, as well as a large collection of notes, receipts, and other paper ephemera, including Hopper's handwritten editing notes, scene lists with various run-times listed (referring to cuts that were 3 and 4 hours in length), logistic diagrams, notes on the soundtrack, notes relating to Hopper's mental state while editing (a legal sheet that reads "Who are you / I am going to die / I need friends"), several legal pads to filled to varying degrees with similar lists and notes, Producer's Sound Service work orders, and various other doodles and notes.Hopper's editing process is captured in part in the L.M. Kit Carson / Lawrence Schiller project, The American Dreamer (Corda Productions, 1971), filmed at Hopper's home in Taos, New Mexico. Shot in his editing studio among reels of film with notes chaotically plastered around the space, machinery whirring constantly in the background, Hopper says of editing, before leafing dejectedly through a binder: "It's just the time, you know? Getting the original idea, writing the screenplay, doing all that, you know, is, like, fun. Casting, getting the production together, even though it may be hard work is still fun. Finding locations, scouting them, building the sets, finally getting it together, shooting the picture: it's hard work but it's still creative and fun. And I suppose, like everybody says this is where the movie is really made and it may be, but it's still boring. It's also like having a child and cutting its arms off, putting its eyes out, because you have a lot of... you know we have 40 hours of film. We have some really beautiful.. everything is beautiful. So you start throwing things out that you really like."Ultimately, Hopper would anger executives by failing to meet his deadlines and, purportedly telling Lew Wasserman to "fuck off" after he told Hopper he would need to recut the film. This led to Hopper's exile from directing in Hollywood. While he would be tapped to direct Out of the Blue (Discovery Films, 1980), Hopper wouldn't direct a film with wide audience reach until Colors (Orion Pictures, 1988), leading to his return to behind the camera.Includes a DVD of the film.20.25 x 16.25 x 10.5 inches (box of paper); 7 x 12 x 13 inches (equipment, overall)PROVENANCE Property from the Life and Career of Dennis Hopper

A group of art show invitations and flyers from the personal collection of Dennis Hopper, including: a couples only black light art show hosted by the San Francisco League for Sexual Freedom, Ed Ruscha at The Texas Gallery, Dennis Hopper in Taos, Roy Lichtenstein at Ferus Gallery, and four copies of a mailer for a Paul Kelsey show at The Dennis Hopper Gallery of Art.Together with color photographs taken around the “Russian Dynamite Death Chair Act” event performed by Hopper at the Big H Speedway in Houston, Texas to promote his film Out of the Blue (Discovery Films, 1982).Hopper was scheduled to deliver a lecture on Out of the Blue for students at Rice University. 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
