Robert Farber: Unseen / Midnight Studio

Unseen / Midnight Studio exhibition reveals a side of Robert Farber hibernating for the past 42 years.

In his words:

“This image was part of an assignment for a European magazine editorial in 1977 published under a different name. I used a pseudonym because my first book of fine art nudes, “Images of Woman” (1976) had been published and I didn’t want to tarnish the reputation I was trying to build. Thiswas because of a mindset guided by my formative years growing up in a traditional American household. Liberal enough where it would be acceptable to publish a book of nudes, but not without some self-restraint. Over time I became less inhibited, eventually no longer feeling a need to hide behind a pseudonym. Now I’m provocative and proud of it.”
