Head and shoulders image of Eli Bornstein, Professor of Art.
Bio/Historical Note: Eli Bornstein was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on 28 Deember.1922. He received his BA (1945) and MA (1954) in Art from the University of Wisconsin. He then studied at the Art Institute of Chicago, the University of Chicago, in Paris at the Academie Julian and the Academie Montmartre of Fernand Leger. Bornstein joined the faculty of the University of Saskatchewan in 1950. Bornstein has an extensive record of juried exhibitions, and commissioned works. His construction for the Saskatchewan Teachers' Federation building in 1956 was the first public abstract sculpture in Saskatchewan (if not western Canada). Other commissioned work was created for the Winnipeg International Airport; the Wascana Centre; and the Canadian Light Source, among others. He is represented in numerous public and private collections, including the National Gallery of Canada, the Canada Council Art Bank, and the Saskatchewan Arts Board. In 1958 while on sabbatical, Bornstein met Dutch artist/scholar Joost Baljeu. Together they founded and co-edited the first issue of an art periodical, Structure. In 1960 Bornstein published the first edition of The Stucturist, an international art journal currently distributed in over 35 countries. The Structurist is multi-disciplinary: in recalling the first issue, one reviewer was "frankly amazed at the ambitious courage of the magazine, the quality of its design, and the embracing intelligence of the contents." Bornstein has served as editor since its inception. Upon his retirement from the U of S in 1990, Bornstein was awarded an honourary Doctor of Letters (DLitt) degree. He was awarded the Saskatchewan Order of Merit in 2008, and was inducted into the Order of Canada in 2019. Bornstein continues to edit and publish The Structurist and remains an active artist and writer (2021).
