There should be a small metal clip on the metal "bow" that holds the rubber bade. Slide it out with your thumbnail and the whole shebang comes off of the arm.

You can get a wiper removal tool from an auto parts store or an autobody supply store to remove the wiper arms. It has a small hooked end that hangs from the handle that hooks under the wiper where the arm attaches to the pivot. You then hold the handle and wiper arm and rock it back and forth while pulling up to remove the arm. An alternative is to pry it off with a screwdriver under the pivot area of the wiper arm. Doing it this way will probably damage the paint on the cowl unless you protect it.
