Jeffrey Rubinoff is one of the great sculptors in steel of the
second half of the twentieth century. In the 1970s and '80s he
exhibited widely in the United States and Canada alongside Anthony
Caro, Mark di Suvero and George Rickey, among others. However, in
the early 1990s Rubinoff withdrew from the art world altogether and
concentrated on creating an extraordinary sculpture park on Hornby
Island. This book is the first major account of his remarkable
career. The Art of Jeffrey Rubinoff considers Rubinoff's life, work
and ideas from a variety of perspectives. Barry Phipps describes
Rubinoff's working methods; James Purdon examines the meanings that
derive from Rubinoff's use of steel; Joan Pachner focuses on the
formative influence of the abstract Expressionist sculptor David
Smith on his work; Maria Tippett examines Rubinoff through the lens
of the broader arts scene in postwar Canada; and Aaron Rosen
attempts to understand Rubinoff's values and ambitions in light of
his Jewish heritage. Other contributing scholars include Alistair
Rider, Mark E. Breeze, Tom Stammers, Alexander Massouras, David
Lawless and Peter Clarke. The book's foreword is written by the
distinguished Yale historian Jay Winter. Drawing on interviews and
correspondence with Rubinoff himself, as well as uncatalogued
archives and unpublished documents in the artist's possession, The
Art of Jeffrey Rubinoff makes available for the very first time a
significant quantity of primary material, both textual and visual,
for scholars and students of the future.
