ICONS OF THE SIXTIES

Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac Paris Pantin presents Dennis Hopper’s exhibition Icons of the Sixties, a selection of photographs and personal objects alongside an emblematic sculpture as well as an installation composed of two canvases and an experimental film

At the centre of the exhibition in Paris Pantin the gallery presents a selection of 35 hand-signed vintage photographic prints by Dennis Hopper where he experimented with an irregular black frame produced by the photo-emulsion. These black and white photographs were taken between 1962 and 1967 and shot only with natural light. “I had been taking photographs because I hoped to be able to direct movies. That’s why I never cropped any of the photographs; they are all full frame.” (Dennis Hopper)
