A group of six mixed media paper and cloth assemblages believed to have been created by Dennis Hopper, one of which is dated "1974" in blue ink.

Though better known for his photography and paintings, Hopper was deeply influenced by assemblage artists such as George Herms, and created and exhibited assemblages and collages of his own making in addition to his photographs and paintings.

Writing for Vogue in 1965, Terry Southern explained: “I asked Frank O’Hara, Associate Curator of Painting and Sculpture of the Museum of Modern Art, what he thought of Hopper’s collection. “Excellent,” he said, “but that’s not surprising because so is his own work,” referring to the myriad collages, assemblages, and photo-abstractions done by the collector himself—the bulk of which, as it turns out, was destroyed in the big Bel Air fire of 1961, along with some six hundred manuscript pages of poetry.”
