City Roofs,
Edward HOPPER

Name: City Roofs

Price: 650 EUR

Edward Hopper’s depiction of the 1932 New York skyline is one of the most meditative and warm of his paintings. Painted in 1932, the piece captures the light and shade of a warm, glowing evening. Paintings like the watercolor City Roofs (1932) show Hopper’s fascination with the city views visible from his windows and his rooftop. They reveal how attuned he was to the spatial dynamics and subtleties of the city’s built environment.

City Roofs is rendered by THE SKATEROOM as part of an open edition skateboard collection, officially licensed with Artist Rights Society (ARS) and the Whitney Museum of American Art. 10% of all revenue from this collection goes towards funding the incredible Cuba Skate and their recycled-plastic skatepark project.

Discover this project

Edward HOPPER was a keen observer of the everyday, which he transformed through his imagination into works of art that bear his signature tense, enigmatic atmospheres. A reflective and individualistic man, he was deeply attuned to the relationship of the self to the world, and his works increasingly focused on the psychological realities of his subjects. Hopper was frequently inspired by the two locations in which he spent most of his time: downtown New York, where he lived and worked in the same apartment on Washington Square from 1913 until his death in 1967; and Cape Cod, where since 1934 he maintained a second home and studio.

THE SKATEROOM’s first engagement with of the works of Edward HOPPER – and in celebration of the exhibition Edward Hopper’s New York at the Whitney Museum of American Art – we are happy to present three skateboard artworks, rendered a trio of HOPPER’s iconic paintings: City Roofs, Early Sunday Morning and Manhattan Bridge. 10% of all revenue from this collection goes towards funding the incredible Cuba Skate non profit and their recycled-plastic skatepark project.
