Edward Hopper - Nighthawks ou les oiseaux de nuit,1942.

huile sur toile -84 x 152 cm

Edward Hopper said that Nighthawks was inspired by “a restaurant on New York’s Greenwich Avenue where two streets meet,” but the image—with its carefully constructed composition and lack of narrative—has a timeless, universal quality that transcends its particular locale. One of the best-known images of twentieth-century art, the painting depicts an all-night diner in which three customers, all lost in their own thoughts, have congregated. Hopper’s understanding of the expressive possibilities of light playing on simplified shapes gives the painting its beauty. Fluorescent lights had just come into use in the early 1940s, and the all-night diner emits an eerie glow, like a beacon on the dark street corner. Hopper eliminated any reference to an entrance, and the viewer, drawn to the light, is shut out from the scene by a seamless wedge of glass. The four anonymous and uncommunicative night owls seem as separate and remote from the viewer as they are from one another. (The red-haired woman was actually modeled by the artist’s wife, Jo.) Hopper denied that he purposefully infused this or any other of his paintings with symbols of human isolation and urban emptiness, but he acknowledged that in Nighthawks “unconsciously, probably, I was painting the loneliness of a large city.”

 Edward Hopper - Nighthawks,1942

( nighthawk= night owl =noctambule )

Pour cette toile, Hopper dit s’être inspiré d’un restaurant de Greenwich Village où il habitait jusqu’à sa mort, d’un tableau de Van Gogh (Café de nuit, 1888), des films noirs et surtout d’une nouvelle d’Hemingway, The Killers, récit sur fond d’assassinat d’un boxeur qui fut portée à l’écran par Robert Siodmak (avec Burt Lancaster et Ava Gardner, en 1946). Le cinéma a constamment rendu hommage à Hopper qui lui-même était un grand cinéphile : "Quand je n’arrivais pas à peindre, j’allais voir des films pendant une semaine ou davantage". Pour certains décors de The Killers, Robert Siodmak s’est directement inspiré de plusieurs tableaux de Hopper. Plus tard, Wim Wenders dans La Fin de la violencereproduira les composantes de cette toile (le bar, le point de vue, les accessoires et la femme à la jupe rouge).
