Ric Howard; Red, White & Blue
April 13, 2022 - July 4, 2022
Richard (Ric) E. Howard (1912-1996) planted his roots here in Dennis in the 70’s after being Executive Director of Macy’s art department, and serving in World War II.
He became well known for his clean, spare style of patriotic flag paintings, as well as paintings of local landmarks and amusing depictions of Victorian family life. Often described as a “sophisticated primitive” artist, he was a highly-trained artist who used flat planes and skewed architecture, accenting humor, wit, and color.
The CCMoA recently received a bequest of 30 original Ric Howard paintings from another local legend, the late Helen Pond, giving our Museum the greatest representation of this artist anywhere.
