Capturing Life’s Landscapes
Photographer Arthur Hochman considers New York’s Central Park and
Philadelphia’s Rittenhouse Square the perfect outdoor studios. He will
spend a day or an afternoon in either one or he’ll go no further than
the landscapes of his hometown, Hopewell, to find subject matter.
Hochman, who says he enjoys capturing “the art of common and often
unnoticed subject,” opens an exhibit, “Black and White and Color,” at
Failte Coffeehouse, which has recently moved to a new location at 9
East Broad Street in Hopewell, on Friday, July 1.
He says the exhibit is an eclectic mix of local landscapes and urban
character studies. “I find the use of black and white photography to
be extremely honest, sincere, and revealing. In the absence of color
the audience is granted the ability to observe the subject or
landscape in its most basic and striking form. The color photographs
in this exhibit are intended to celebrate the beauty and influence
that color can have on the most ordinary of subjects.”
When he is not behind the camera, Hochman is the assistant vice
president of operations for Caliper Management, a testing and
consulting firm located in Carnegie Center. He has also acted for the
last 25 years, appearing at the Bucks County Playhouse, Open Air
Theater, Off Broadstreet, and Kelsey. In addition to his love for the
stage, Hochman has also performed with the Rockabilly band Barry and
the 8-Tracks.
