Howard Gallery of Fine Art, in New Hope, owned by Howard and Edye Cooperman, had a full-house of artists and collectors Saturday night, February 25, at their grand opening. The gallery saw a steady stream of traffic for hours. Artworks from many artists, including local ones, were on display. Many of these works are still on display, so if you missed the grand opening you can still view these great pieces of art by stopping by the Howard Gallery of Fine Art.
There’s never an “off season” for art in New Hope, but with the wind and freezing cold weather, one would expect parking to be easily found. As it turns out, the immediate back street and areas around Howard Gallery of Fine Art were completely full! The dedication of the “Dutch Room” which occured at 4:30pm. Upon entering the gallery in the “Grand Room” one was greeted with wonderful live music and a crowd of people. Some of the artwork was rearranged in the gallery since its initial opening a few months ago. The contrast from each wall created interest and lead one easily throughout the gallery creating a wonderful tour of art. Howard Gallery of Fine Art features many artists and works and because of this careful arrangement it was difficult to miss anything. The “Grand Room” made for the perfect introduction to the art on display throughout the rest of the gallery.

Computer generated art is by no means new yet the digital art movement still managed to sneak up on us. It is difficult to pin point when digital fine art began because its very close relatives, graphic design, photography, animation and such, have existed for quite some time. Disciplines like these have always been accepted as visual mediums but not always as fine art mediums.
But those disciplines and others like them have ensured that art and technology have retained a symbiotic relationship of some sort. Although that relationship has not always been recognized it can not be denied.

Art in its creative form is a stress buster, and visiting a fine art gallery is similar to exposing the mind to interesting and colorful ideas. When we talk of fine art, translated from French term “beaux arts” in 1767, we refer to an elitist art form, concerned with subtlety and traditions.
Fine art includes in its repertoire a gamut of visual art forms that include painting, sculpture, craftwork, applied arts in all its avatars, theater, photography, opera, poetry recitations, or etchings and drawings. The fine art galleries, continuing with the tradition of their brand name, are not mere rooms or galleries that house paintings but are metamorphosing into places of recreation where visitors stroll in, admire or dissect art, enjoy wine, or meet with fellow artists and critics.
