Copy Cats

New Show, “Copy Cats,” Opens at Gallery One, Ocean View, DE on October 1, 2025 through November 4, 2025. Gallery One is pleased to announce the August show, “Copy Cats,” open to the public October 1, 2025 through November 4, 2025. “A copycat is a person or entity that imitates or duplicates the actions or products of another without originality or creativity.” Sounds insulting, and it is. The term is often used to describe plagiarism, imitation, or uninspired copying. But in the world of art, copying can be a bit different. In the Renaissance copying was integral to the artistic learning process and in the 20th century movements like Pop Art openly borrowed from popular culture and existing imagery. This month the artists of Gallery One are creating “Homage” to some inspirational artist’s work. Homage is defined as a respectful imitation or tribute to another artist’s work, acknowledging the original source and honoring its influence.  Venue: Gallery One.
