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.
