About Us 

Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, HOWARD495 is an art advisory firm serving new and dedicated collectors, in both the private and commercial sectors globally since 2006. Offering a customized, collaborative approach, we assist our clients with all aspects related to their art collecting needs, from research and education to acquisition and installation.  

With regular monitoring of art schools, auctions, news and events, H495 stays current with developments and global changes in the art world. Long-term relationships with dealers, collectors, advisors, and auction house specialists provide H495 not only knowledge of, but access to, difficult to acquire sought-after works from both emerging and established artists. 

Housed within a project space H495 exhibits for sale, a rotating, secondary market inventory of contemporary work by international and national artists at all junctures of their careers. We are dedicated to offering diverse art, across all disciplines, without compromise that is historically, socially and at times politically relevant and collectable today.

Howard495 is proud to classify itself as a women-owned and operated business and takes great pride in building diverse collections that authentically reflect what the art world looks like today.
