Overview

Christopher Felver (b. 1946, United States) is a cultural documentarian. His films and photographs read like a roster of the American mid-century avant-garde. Felver has published several photographic books of public figures in the arts. He has also made several films that have screened at numerous institutions across the U.S. and internationally.

 

As a visiting artist at the American Academy in Rome from 1988-1989, Felver produced over 250 portraits of European artists across the continent. Felver’s 1350 portraits represent American and European cultural icons. Writers Lawrence Ferlingetti, Robert Creeley, David Amram, Amiri Baraka, George Plimpton, David Shapiro, Luc Sante, Lee Ranaldo, William Parker, Douglas Brinkley, Gary Snyder, Lance Henson, Linda Hogan, and Simon Ortiz have written introductions for Felver’s books.

 

Felver has exhibited in solo presentations at the National Gallery of Art (Washington, D.C.), the New York Public Library, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. He has also displayed his work at MOCA Los Angeles, the Whitney Museum of American Art (NYC), Torino Fotografia Biennale Internazionale (Italy), Centre Georges Pompidou (Paris), the London National Theatre, Guild Hall (East Hampton), and Fahey Klein Gallery (Los Angeles), among many more venues.
