Located in Santa Cruz, CA
Signed, verso, 'Boris Deutsch' (American, 1892-1978) an painted circa 1965. A substantial, tonalist oil portrait of a young blonde woman in a red dress contrasted against a taupe background. Born Lithuania, Deutsch began drawing at the age of five and remained a self-taught artist except for brief periods of study at the Bloom Academy of Art in Riga and at the Kunstgewerbe Schule in Berlin. He immigrated to Seattle, WA in 1916 and, in 1919, settled in Los Angeles. He was soon supporting himself with commercial art and also became a successful movie set designer in Hollywood. During the late 1930s, Deutsch undertook numerous murals for the WPA including for the Hot Springs (NM) Post Office, the Reedley (CA) Post Office, and 11 murals for the Los Angeles Terminal Annex Post Office. A committed modernist, he specialized in genre and figural works and, during the last ten years of his life, experimented with a variety of graphic styles including monotypes. Over the course of a long career, Boris Deutsch exhibited widely and with success including at LACMA, 1926, 1929, 1941; USC, 1926; Calif. Art Club, 1929; Mills College (Oakland), 1929; Zeitlin Gallery (LA), 1929; Seattle Museum, 1930; San Diego FA Society, 1930; Denver Museum, 1931; CPLH, 1931; Portland (OR) Museum, 1931; Dallas Museum, 1932; Oakland Art Gallery, 1931, 1932, 1936, 1940; Stockton Museum, 1940; UCLA, 1942; Biltmore Salon (LA), 1945; California Watercolor Society, 1945; Scripps College, 1946.
