BiographyBorn in Romania, Sachs first received art training as a child under his artist father. He immigrated to the U.S. at age 17, settling in Chicago. Sachs returned to Europe to attend art school in Germany, spending the 1910s in Munich, where he founded the Munich School of Expressionists (Munich Expressionist Werkstätten).[1] Upon returning to the United States in 1920, Sachs exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago and established the Chicago Industrial Art School, which soon failed due to lack of sufficient funding. Afterward, Sachs became the first Director of the Dayton Museum of Fine Arts, now the Dayton Art Institute. During this time, he also served as the U.S. representative of artist George Grosz. Around 1925, Sachs moved to Los Angeles to design the interiors of the new Gas Company building.[1] As a muralist and decorator, Sachs went on to design the interiors of many Los Angeles landmarks, including the Bullocks Wilshire building (now home to Southwestern Law School), Union Station, Los Angeles City Hall, and the Title Insurance and Trust Company Building. An educator as well as an artist, Sachs also directed the Creative Art Students League of Los Angeles. Sachs was active within the L.A. Weimar exile community of artists, writers, and filmmakers. His friend, the architect Rudolph Schindler, designed Sachs' L.A. house, the Manola Court Apartments. Works
