The Death of President Coolidge by Dennis Farber, Honolulu Museum of Art

Dennis "Denny" H. Farber (March 8, 1946 – May 8, 2017) was an American painter, photographer and educator. Faber was the director of the Mount Royal School of Art at Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) from 2000 to 2004 and co-chair of MICA’s Foundations department from 2010 to 2011.

About

He received a B.A. from Trinity College, in Hartford, Connecticut, in 1968 and an M.F.A. from Claremont Graduate University, Claremont, California, in 1975.

Farber was a recipient New York Foundation for the Arts Grant in 1987. He was also awarded a National Endowment for the Arts Grant in 1995, two residencies at Yaddo 2004 & 2008, Saratoga Springs, New York, and awarded a Mid Atlantic Council for the Arts Grant in 2005.

Farber's photographs run the gamut from street photography to manipulated images to painted photographs many of which are abstract. The majority of his photographs are large format 20 in × 24 in Polaroid prints. Most of his paintings are completely abstract, such as The Death of President Coolidge in the collection of the Honolulu Museum of Art.

Farber’s photographic work was a part of photography’s expanding boundaries in the 1970s and 1980s. Most of Farber’s pictures came from his collages of found images and re-photographed on the 20 × 24 Polaroid camera. He participated in Polaroid Corporation’s Artist Support Program. In 1992 his large format Polaroids were showcased in MoMA’s New Photography 8 exhibition. The same year his work was one six contemporary artists’ works in The Jewish Museum’s widely traveled exhibit, Bridges and Boundaries, African Americans and American Jews. The work was also included in The Edge of Childhood, Heckscher Museum, Huntington, New York, I, Diane Brown Gallery, New York, NY, The Pleasures and Terrors of Domestic Comfort, Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore, MD, which began the year before at MoMA, New York. Farber’s large format Polaroids were also included in OPEN ENDS, Innocence and Experience, Museum of Modern Art’s, (New York, New York) millennial exhibit.
