HOPPER MAKES A SPLASH IN THE ART WORLD
DENNIS HOPPER is making his mark as an artist in Europe after becoming the first living American to exhibit at the fabled Hermitage gallery in St. Petersburg, Russia.
The Easy Rider star admits his artwork is largely unknown in his native America - but he's becoming a big name in London, France and the former Soviet Union.
He explains, "At the Hermitage, they had five rooms there with my work and it was incredible. I'm the most famous artist in Russia and nobody knows my artwork in the United States.
"The Cinematheque in Paris is getting ready to do this show. They're taking half of my art collection and half of my own stuff and filling a whole room with a virtual reality exhibit. And then they're showing 50 films - seven films I directed and the others that I acted in.
"It's all based on how Easy Rider influenced cinema. It's just amazing. I can't wait to see it all."

Dennis Hopper is amazing! He has done so many films and seems to never stop. This
month alone I believe he has at least 3 movies coming out. That’s not even taking
into consideration the fact he goes and promotes all these films, paints, plays poker
and likes to attend all the coolest events. He just doesn’t let up! I have him on
my GPS even. I got his voice from a company called Navtones.com and I love it. It
is the real him and they do other voices such as Mr. T, Kim Cattrall, Gary Busey…
all the real celebrities. Dennis Hopper, go take a holiday!
