Actor Dennis Hopper, best known for his 1969 “Easy Rider” film role, has died of prostate cancer at the age of 74. His less known visual arts work is the subject of the first show to be brought to LA MOCA by dealer Jeffrey Deitch, the museum’s incoming director: Dennis Hopper Double Standard, July 11-Sept. 26.
Coincidentally, today is the last day of the last show, Shepard Fairey: May Day, at Deitch Projects, which is closing shop as its owner decamps for his MOCA directorship, effective Tuesday.
