EXHIBITIONSHoppé Portraits: Society, Studio and StreetOpening June 23Over a decade ago, Emil Otto Hoppé’s work languished in utter obscurity. Yet, in the 1920s and 30s, he was one of the most highly regarded photographers in the world. Emigrating from Germany, he rapidly established himself as a leading portraitist in England photographing politicians, performers, painters, writers, socialites and the working class. This exhibition was organized by the National Portrait Gallery, London, in collaboration with Curatorial Assistance and the E.O. Hoppé Estate Collection and is circulated by Curatorial Assistance Traveling Exhibitions, Pasadena, California.
