The current issue of the Taschen newsletter/magazine offers a book on the history of American storefronts and used the Hopper painting as an introduction to a rather interesting article for those interested in art and consumerism. I posted a screenshot here to give a snip of what it said: http://picasaweb.google.com/paswango/Triptych/photo#5064954295351297042 The print is tiny but you can read it if you use the magnifier. If you find it interesting you can download the whole magazine here: http://www.taschen.com/pages/en/downloads/index/1.htm The storefront article starts on p 15. The magazine is well worth the download if you dan't have access to the print version. I think Philippe Orlent would enjoy this too, as an art director. -- Phil Swango 307 Aliso Dr SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 505-262-4085
