Ano de 1814. Cidade de Edo (atual Tokyo). Um artista já realizado em vida e agora de meia idade, Tetsuzo tem em suas mãos clientes de todo japão e incansavelmente trabalha em sua "cheio-de-lixo" e caótica casa/ateliê. Ele passa seus dias criando incríveis obras de arte, desde um retrato gigantesco de Bodhidharma em 180 m² de papel, a dois pardais pintados em um grão de arroz. De temperamento curto, extremamente sarcástico, sem paixão por motivo ou dinheiro, ele investiria uma fortuna por qualquer trabalho que ele tivesse realmente interessado. Terceira das quatro filhas de Tetsuzo e nascida de seu segundo casamento, autodeclarada de 23 anos, O-Ei herdou o talento de seu pai e teimosia, várias das vezes ela quem pintava ao invés do pai, mesmo que descreditada. Sua arte é tão poderosa que algumas vezes gerava problemas.

The many references in contemporary film to Edward Hopper's works, as well as the widespread reproduction of some of his paintings have made his universe familiar to many. His unclassifiable figurations weave a dialogue between appearances and light, between the unmistakeable and enigma. Focusing on the artist's personal life in the context of 20th century America, "Edward Hopper and the Blank Canvas" bears witness to a fiercely independent painter, who was aware of the issues of his era, and who was hostile to the imprisonment that a modern American art opposing realism and abstraction could lead him to. This film brings the artist to life, transposing his realist and metaphysical poetry. It is a subtile and passionate work, which at last unveils one of the most important painters of American modernity.

The programme examines nine key Turner paintings and shows how we should re-think them in the light of the scientific and Industrial Revolution.
