My father was a painter originally from Odessa, Ukraine who traveled the world with my mother before I was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1926. He encouraged me to be a painter and had me sit beside him at his easel with a brush and paints and beginning at age six he was there to spur me on. When I came to San Francisco, California in 1951 I found the major turning point for my future life as a painter. From the academic approach to painting I learned in art school, I went to totally abstract work, particularly influenced by the paintings of Clyfford Still who had been a major force at the California School of Fine Arts just previous to my arrival. Although I never studied with him, I saw several wonderful examples of what he had been doing and that opened a door for me. My paintings are abstract with suggestions of architecture and nature and occasionally, the figure. During the last six months I have worked in a way similar to the energetic way I painted 50 years ago in San Francisco. Drawing is always as important to me as is painting and I look forward to documenting it all. My work is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, San Francisco MOMA, the Whitney Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Baltimore Museum of Art, and the Menil Collection, Houston, Texas, among many others. I have been exhibiting since 1948 and my most recent exhibition was of 1950s paintings at Nyehaus Gallery, NYC in 2011. The catalog of that show can be seen online at Nyehaus.com. There is also an interview by Faye Hirsch, Senior Editor at Art in America which can be seen online at ArtinAmerica.com. An article titled “Can We Still Learn to Speak Martian” by John Yau written for Hyperallergic, an online art magazine dated April 29, 2012 discusses my early work along with other Bay Area painters.

Co-propriétaire d’une scierie et d’un moulin, son père est arrêté et incarcéré dans un camp du goulag quelques mois après l’arrivée de l’Armée rouge à Wołożyn. Peu de temps après, Sonia Bory est elle-même déportée avec sa mère et son frère, dans un sovkhoze du nord du Kazakhstan. Sonia Bory, sa mère et son frère vivent déplacés en URSS pendant six ans. Sa mère y travaille comme économe au dispensaire. D’abord intégré à l’armée du travail, son frère devient sous-officier de l’Armée russe en 1941, après les accords entre l’URSS et la Pologne. Après un interrogatoire de la mère de Sonia par un agent du NKVD, la famille quitte clandestinement le sovkhoze pour Pavlodar, au nord-est du Kazakhstan. Ce n’est qu’en 1946 que Sonia et sa mère sont renvoyées en Pologne, plus précisément à Szczecin, ville allemande devenue polonaise. Elles apprennent alors la mort de plusieurs proches et membres de leur famille restés en Pologne et exterminés durant l’occupation nazie, et restent sans nouvelles du père de Sonia, qu’elles comprennent mort. Après quelques mois à Szczecin, elles passent la frontière clandestinement vers l’Allemagne et obtiennent ensuite un visa pour la France pour y rejoindre une partie de leur famille qui a survécu à la guerre. Le frère de Sonia, lui, déserte et s’enfuit en Allemagne, puis en France avec une organisation juive sioniste, avant de s’installer définitivement en Israël. Installée à Paris, Sonia Bory s’inscrit en études supérieures et fait carrière en tant que chimiste.
BiographySonia Bory was born in Wołożyn, Poland (now Valozhyn, Belarus), to a well-known Polish rabbinical family. A few months after the Red Army arrived in Wołożyn, her father, co-owner of a sawmill and a flour mill, was arrested and sent away to a camp in the Gulag. Shortly after his arrest, Sonia Bory was herself deported, along with her mother and brother, to a sovkhoz in northern Kazakhstan. Sonia Bory, her mother and brother, lived in exile in the USSR for six years. Sonia's mother worked as a bursar in the sovkhoz dispensary. After serving in an NKVD labour column, her brother became a non-commissioned officer in the Red Army following the Sikorski-Maisky agreement between Poland and the USSR in 1941. After being interrogated by an NKVD agent, Sonia's mother left the sovkhoz in secret for Pavlodar, in north-eastern Kazakhstan. Sonia and her mother were not sent back to Poland until 1946, to Szczecin, a German town that had become Polish. They learned of the death of relatives and family members who had remained in Poland and been exterminated during the Nazi occupation, but had no information about Sonia's father, who they thought was dead. After a few months in Szczecin, they crossed the border illegally into Germany and then obtained a visa for France to join part of their family who had survived the war. Sonia's brother deserted and fled to Germany, then to France with a Jewish Zionist organization, before settling permanently in Israel. In Paris, Sonia Bory enrolled in higher education and then pursued a career as a chemist.
