About the Artist
Adrian J. Dornbush was born in Groningen, Holland in 1900. He is known for modernist and regionalist landscapes, portraiture, and still-life paintings. Dornbush earned a B.A in 1918 at the University of Wisconsin. He also studied in Europe for two years and at the University of Kansas. Dornbush organized the Flint Institute of Art and was named its director. He also worked as an administrator and instructor at various midwestern institutions, including Dubuque Iowa public schools, the Dubuque Art Association, and the University of Kansas. He established the art instruction program at the Little Gallery in Cedar Rapids and was a co-founder and the director of the Stone City Art Colony. In 1934, Dornbush led the Key West, Florida art project of the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA). Dornbush maintained a close relationship with Edward Rowan and served with him in several New Deal art projects, including as the senior administrator for the Tennessee Valley area and the Special Skills branch of the WPA. Dornbush’s work was exhibited widely across the country as part of traveling exhibitions from public works projects. Dornbush is listed in Who Was Who in American Art and other standard references.
