Edward Hopper

so i caught a minute of a radio show about the edward hopper exhibit that is up at the national gallery in dc.
seemed like an interesting discussion of his work, and definitely made me want to go see nighthawks in person.

however, during the course of a discussion regarding the pursuit of the so-called "american dream," isolation within the city/crowd/noise of modernity,sense of being nowhere and everywhere at once, describing many of my recent thoughts since joining the army of General Malaise--one of the critics said that "loneliness is so overdone."

that made me kinda mad.but by then i was home and could turn off the radio.
