Library is a collection of paintings by two of Canada s most
influential contemporary artists, Michael Dumontier and Neil
Farber. From the simple premise of the book title comes a series of
images that are laugh-out-loud funny. A collection of book covers
adorned with titles painted in simple handwritten fonts are
displayed on brightly coloured hardboard. Each book forms part of
an ongoing series Dumontier and Farber started in 2009. In
Dumontier and Farber s Library, titles like I Lost the Human Race,
Change Your Relationship to Your Unchangeable Past, and I Have a
Medical Condition That Makes It So I Don t Have to Talk to You
offer surprising and astute observations, all in the duo s
characteristic deadpan style. The simplicity of the shapes and text
evokes an immediate but lasting profundity, with each piece causing
one to wonder about the thoughts that roam their consciousness, and
the books that take up residence on their and our shelves.
Dumontier and Farber are founding members of the influential art
collective the Royal Art Lodge, and have been collaborating on art
projects for more than fifteen years, exhibiting internationally.
Library is playful and insightful as it pokes and prods at the
human condition.
