Visiting Taschen’s website just broke the news that Dennis Hopper died yesterday at the age of 74 following a battle with prostate cancer. As a fan of Blue Velvet and Apocalypse Now I was sad to hear of his death but glad looking at his obituary to see what a rich and varied life he had as an artist.
