Duncan Hannah’s Cars
A couple of years before he died, Duncan Hannah described his approach to painting in an interview. “I wanted to tell stories in my pictures,” he said. “I wanted to create worlds that people could escape into.” Hannah went on to draw a parallel with Alfred Hitchcock movies and their establishing shots, “picture-postcard perfect, except it’s not.” This was exactly what Hannah was trying to do, to “put menace in a landscape,” to “paint something really beautiful that’s got a subtext of sorrow.”
