Eli Bornowsky

Born in 1980 in Alberta, Bornowsky currently lives in Brooklyn, NY. He holds a BFA from Emily Carr University of Art + Design, Vancouver, and an MFA from Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, New York.  His work has been included in exhibitions at the Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver; Vancouver Art Gallery; the Western Front, Vancouver; Ottawa Art Gallery; G Gallery, Toronto; SFU Gallery, Burnaby; and the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, and Unit 17, among others.  His writing has been published in Fillip, C Magazine and Pyramid Power, and he has curated numerous exhibitions and events at the Or Gallery, Vancouver.

Eli Bornowsky is a painter, writer and curator who lives in Vancouver and Brooklyn. Frequently drawing on a wide array of influences from art, mysticism, math and science, Bornowsky has produced a significant body of work that takes a consistently studied and exploratory approach to abstract painting, with special emphasis on colour. The artist’s investigations in recent years have resulted in shaped paintings, low wall reliefs and optical tessellations.
