BOOKS Who is Artist and Photographer Howard
David Johnson? In David's invitation to the Florence
Biennale Contemporary Art Exhibition, (a partner in the United Nations'
Dialog among Nations), UN Secretary General Kofi Anon wrote:
"Artists have a special role to play in the global struggle for peace.
At their best, artists speak not only to people; they speak for them.
Art is a weapon against ignorance and hatred and an agent of public
awareness... Art opens new doors for learning, understanding, and peace
among nations." A
portrait of the artist in his painting studio as he is today. This September 2009 photo was taken by his
youngest son Erich.
Some of David's more prestigious clients have included the
National Geographic Society, the University of Texas, the
University of Cambridge in England, Universal Studios, Paramount
Studios, PBS TV, The History Channel, Adobe Photoshop Auto FX,
Doubleday, the History Book of the Month Club and J Walter Thompson

Artist's Statement: "Did
you know that many of the breathtaking works Pre-Raphaelites were doing
in oils
in the 1800’s were declared not to be Art? In London the Royal Academy
had a
very narrow view as to what qualified. No wonder Rossetti led a
rebellion
against them. Today, no educated person would say Pre-Raphaelite Art
was not
just Art, but Exquisite Fine Art. How about Styles? Impressionism is a
great example; It was not
enough that these institutions rejected the work, but they felt the
need to
destroy the person’s reputation and livelihood. Of course collectors
pay
millions for these Impressionistic paintings now, and Curators,
Historians and
Professional Art Critics all hail them as sensitive works of fine art.
When
Monet submitted his work to the Salon in Paris, they said" A monkey has
gotten a hold of a set of paints" and would paint huge "R"s for
"rejected on the back canvas. Rejecting him was not enough for them.
They
wanted to be sure he never sold another picture. They wanted to hurt
him and his
family for sick sadistic pleasure. He got really good at re-stretching
his
canvas with a double layer to cover up their hateful defacement of his
original
art. They saw themselves as powerful as the deadly committee for public
safety
in the French Revolution as far as the Art World went and delighted in
"sending artists to the guillotine", so to speak. These hateful little
petty tyrants were unable to keep his name out of the history books or
to keep
his paintings for selling for millions of dollars. This is the
treatment someone
who creates a new style gets, but developments in applied technology
like
manufactured tube paints as opposed to hand mixed paints were violently
rejected
by these types as well and they forcefully proclaimed anyone who used
paints
from a tube was not a "real artist". Well, tube paints are pretty well
accepted now. So will photography and digital media in time. You
probably know how bad Photographers were
treated, but now it is a respected Art
Form. I Remember the hateful things they said about Pastels and Mary
Cassat, and
now Pastel Paintings are considered Fine Art and Mary Cassat’s works
are
regarded as masterpieces. Now that snobs have Digital Artists to look
down on,
Colored Pencils are starting to get some respect. Our day will come." ~
