news1-ts132 This is an undated but circa 35 years ago origin postcard of a 1980s award winning photographer Tony Shafrazi who studied and compiled galleries and exhibitions of Dennis Hopper in particular his fascination of his movie Easy Rider which this was published around 35 years ago and I believe a souvenir from one of Tony Shafrazis Hopper events when this award winning photo was on display in an Italian museum unused and mint.
..."Hopper's photographs are "noteworthy". In fact, they are more than that. For most of the 1960s, Hopper was a Hollywood outsider with a reputation as a troublemaker and a rebel. He had appeared in Rebel Without a Cause with his close friend James Dean in 1955, but had subsequently been consigned to one too many supporting roles. What he really wanted to do was direct films that flew in the face of Hollywood convention - something he achieved, to a degree, with 1969's Easy Rider, which ushered in a new era of vibrant independent film-making in America.From 1961 to 1967, though, Hopper made photographs as if his life depended on it. In the vividly impressionistic introduction to Out of the Sixties - his first book of photographs, published in 1986 - Hopper wrote: "I never made a cent from these photos. They cost me money but kept me alive They were the only creative outlet I had for these years until Easy Rider. I never carried a camera again."
