| Disfarmer: The Vintage Prints |
 |

Disfarmer: The Vintage Prints is the first museum exhibition presenting the vintage photographs of Mike Disfarmer (1884-1959), one of America's greatest portraitists.
Disfarmer is often compared to Walker Evans for his powerfully rendered Depression-era Southern subjects, and to August Sander for his rendering of “people without masks.” In turn, Richard Avedon acknowledged Disfarmer's influence when he created In the American West.
