He was an early and important modernist  whose seminal views of the United States in the  1920s rival those of his peers: Paul Strand,  Edward Steichen, Alfred Stieglitz, and Walker  Evans. His work shows us an America as only an  outsider could: brave, new, and grand in scale  but with a hint of trouble brewing in the gaps  between its multicultural and economic  diversities.\nMuch of Hoppé's work was  locked away in English and German archives for  the second half of the twentieth century,  resulting in an eclipse of his reputation. Only  recently has his work been reassembled, and now  we can see his intimate and intelligent view of  the world at defining moments in its history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhillip Prodger\u003c\/b\u003e is the Lisette Model\/Joseph G.
