Visions Of Reality

Beautiful film adaptations of Edward Hopper’s iconic paintings, inspired by Hopper’s unique vision of midcentury America, filmmaker Gustav Deutsch recreated 13 of the painter’s works for the big screen. Vienna-born director Gustav Deutsch was so inspired by this aura of mystery that he decided to create Shirley: Visions of Reality, an exquisite example of interdisciplinary cinema based on the imagery in Hopper’s paintings. It was first released in 2013, but the film is now back in the limelight thanks to a Hopper retrospective in Bologna which focuses on the artist’s influence on cinema.
