ROBERT FARBER
A favorite artist of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who published his first book By The Sea while an editor at Doubleday, Robert Farber is a legend in the photography world. Seamlessly melding commercial and fine art photography, Farber has shot for brands ranging from Paramount to Peugeot and has lectured at the Smithsonian Institute. He has received multiple awards, including Photographer of the Year from PMA (Photographic Manufacturers Association), and his eleven published photo books have sold over half a million copies. Currently, a documentary highlighting his life and career is in development at PBS.
Farber's impressionistic photographs depict a world of glamour and beauty that can sometimes seem lost in the age of Instagram influencers and reality television. Arguably best known for his female nudes, which revolutionized the advertising industry in the 1970s, Farber has captured many subjects, from American diners to wild horses to the stormy planes of Africa's savannas. Farber's photographs fall in direct lineage with Man Ray, Helmut Newton, and Henri Cartier Bresson. Continually revisiting older work, Farber recently published a series printed from deteriorating film in his archive dating back to 1969.
