Conrad Buff
“Arizona Mesas: Earth and Sky”, ca.
1940s, oil on masonite, signed.
16” x 24” plus frame. A highly individualistic painter who ignored the
conventions of his times, Buff moved to Los Angeles in 1906, and by the
mid-1930s had established his reputation as an artist of the American
Southwest, and also executed a number of large-scale murals for public buildings. His recognition and popularity have
soared over the past decade due to the rediscovery of a major collection of his
work still in his daughter’s possession. Complete biography on request.
