Boris Lovet-Lorski 1894-1973
Boris Lovet-Lorski
was born in Lithuania in 1894. He was a sculptor,
lithographer, and painter. Lovet-Lorski studied at the
Academy of Art in St. Petersburg Russia from 1914-1916. He
immigrated to Boston in 1920 and then later lived in New
York City. He lived in Paris from 1926 to 1932 and then in
Los Angeles from 1932 until 1934. Eventually, he became an
American citizen.
Lovet-Lorski
stylistically is categorized as an Art Deco artist. He is
known for creating work from a variety of rare materials
including marble, granite, slate, and onyx. His sculptures,
including the bronzes, have a highly polished look. His work
from the 1920s and 1930s often feature exotic allegorical
nudes and stylized horses. He also sculpted many busts,
often on commission.
Lovet-Lorski was a
member of many organizations and clubs, including the Lotus
Club, National Academy of Design, Society of Independent
Artists, and several Parisian Salons.
Lovet-Lorski B.
25 декабря
1891 (Ковенская губ., ныне близ Каунаса, Литва) – 4
марта 1973 (Нью-Йорк).
Скульптор,
живописец и график.
В 1913–1917
учился на архитектурном отделении ИАХ и брал уроки у
профессора скульптуры Г. Р. Залемана. В I Мировую войну
служил офицером в гусарском полку. После революции
эмигрировал в США и поселился в Нью-Йорке; в 1925 принял
американское гражданство. В начале 1920-х преподавал в
Лейтонской школе искусств в Милуоки, штат Висконсин; там
же в Институте искусств состоялась первая персональная
выставка (1921).
В 1920-е
получил известность как один из создателей американского
арт деко в скульптуре. Исполнял плоские декоративные
фигуры животных из камня, обращался к стилизации в духе
архаики (группа вавилонских богов «Солнечные часы»,
1926). Позднее перешел к академичной манере. Создавал
символические фигуры и группы, женские и детские головы
из мрамора, дерева, сланца, олова и слоновой кости.
Исполнил скульптурные портреты Ф. И. Шаляпина (1938), А.
Тосканини, А. Эйнштейна, членов итальянского
Королевского дома (1930-е).
В 1926–1932
жил в Париже, выставлялся в Осеннем салоне и салоне
Тюильри (1926, 1929). В 1929 выпустил два портфолио
своих литографий. Скульптуры «Голова неведомого Бога» и
«Венера» были приобретены Министерством изящных искусств
Франции для Пти Пале (1936). В 1937 представлял
американское искусство на парижской Всемирной выставке.
Провел
персональные выставки в нью-йоркских галереях J.
Seligmann (1927), Grand Central Palace (1928),
Wildenstein (1931, 1934, 1938, 1940, 1945, 1954), World
House (1963; живопись, графика), в университете
Сиракьюса (1967) и др.
В
1950–1960-е создавал абстрактные литографии, писал
маслом и гуашью. В 1955 исполнил памятник американским
военным на мемориальном кладбище в форте Бонифацио в
Маниле (Филиппины). В 1960 был избран членом
Национальной академии дизайна.
Представлен
в музее Метрополитен в Нью-Йорке, музеях Бостонского и
Колумбийского университетов, музеях Парижа и Лондона.
В 2008–2009
работы экспонировались в Русском музее, Третьяковской
галерее, в Художественном музее Фреда-Джонса-младшего
(Оклахома) и Художественном музее Сан-Диего (Калифорния)
на выставке «Американские художники из Российской
империи».

Malvina Hoffman (June 15, 1885, July 10, 1966),
was an American sculptor and author, well known for her
life-size bronze sculptures of people. She also worked in
plaster and marble. Portrait busts of significant individuals of
that time and depictions of people in their everyday lives were
frequent works executed by Hoffman. Dancers were the subjects of
the works that brought her earliest recognition and she
continued to sculpt dancers throughout her career, some
individuals repeatedly, such as Anna Pavlova. She was highly
skilled in foundry techniques as well, often casting her own
works and she published a definite work on historical and
technical aspects of sculpture, ''Sculpture Inside and Out'' |
