Homer Cooyama’s work feels like eavesdropping on a quiet conversation, small, ordinary moments stretched just long enough to notice. He painted diner booths, rain-streaked windows, and the way morning light hits a coffee cup’s edge. You’ll find him tucked inside the 1970s Chicago Imagists’ orbit, but his scenes feel more like a neighbor’s snapshot than a manifesto.
Slide past the big names and hunt for Untitled (1973), a lone umbrella on a sidewalk that somehow holds the whole mood of a city block in one glance.
