Howard Kanovitz, whose 50-year career ranged from abstract expressionism to computer imaging, was at the forefront of the art movement known as photorealism. His 1966 landmark Jewish Museum solo exhibition launched this new genre of photo-based painting. Though dubbed by Barbara Rose “the grandfather of photorealism”, Kanovitz’s work transcended that classification in “realistic paintings for which the concept of realism is too narrow.” His works are in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York City, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C., and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in California.
