Description:
|
Bechtle achieves an uncanny stylistic remove from his subjects through the use of slides, which he projects onto his canvases at the outset of his painting process. This work, whose title and deserted aspect pay homage to Edward Hopper’s Early Sunday Morning (1930), presents a steeply angled view of a San Francisco neighborhood whose surfaces display stark shifts between areas of deep shadow and bright light.
