Artist Edward Hopper, 1882- 1967, has an exhibit at SAM, the Seattle Art Museum in Washington until March ’09 that focuses specifically on his women themed work. Consisting of paintings, etching and photographs, the intention of the show is to support the opinion “that Hopper found his most potent, enigmatic subject in the American city–the modern American woman… a look at a social dynamic that was reshaping the urban scene–the influx of young women into the modern work-a-day world.“
