Charles Griffin Farr Standing Nude oil on canvas 1962
Charles Griffin Farr – “Standing Nude” oil on canvas – 1962. He witnessed and rendered the American Depression in the 1930s, World War II in the 1940s, a charged art scene in San Francisco in the 1950s-1990s and a vibrant neighborhood of creative people living on Potrero Hill. Charles Griffin Farr was also a proponent of the importance of the arts. He offered weekly figure drawing sessions in his Potrero Hill studio and home. Farr also organized a local art show at the San Francisco Public Library, Potrero Branch, called the Potrero Hill Artists’ Exhibition in 1958. This is the oldest annual art show in San Francisco and owes its longevity to a group of artists who painted with, or under the tutelage of Farr. This exhibition is credited with helping to save the Potrero Branch of the library from being closed during budget cuts. Charles Griffin Farr was represented by the Hackett Freedman Gallery in San Francisco until it closed in 2009. He is in a number of important public and private art collections.
