Eli Bornstein - Portrait

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).

Dr. Milt Bell - Portrait

Head and shoulders image of Dr. Milt Bell, professor and head of Animal Science.

Bio/Historical Note: Dr. John Milton (Milt) Bell was born in 1922 in Islay, Alberta. He earned a BSc in Agriculture from the University of Alberta (1943), an MSc from McGill University (1945), and a PhD from Cornell University (1948) specializing in nutrition. He joined the faculty of the Department of Animal Husbandry at the University of Saskatchewan in 1948. Dr. Bell served as department head from 1954-1975, then as associate dean from 1975-1980, and finally as the Burford Hooke Research Chair until his retirement in 1990. Dr. Bell was an active member of a small team of plant breeders, nutritionists and chemists that developed canola as a major crop for Canadian farmers. His work with rapeseed, begun in the early 1950s, involved basic nutritional research but also branched into toxicology and the mechanism of action of goitroigens and glucosinolates in swine and mice. Dr. Bell worked co-operatively with plant breeders and other animal nutritionists in defining the detrimental characteristics in rapeseed, which eventually gave rise to the development of canola and the effective utilization of canola meal in livestock rations. Dr. Bell served as president of the Canadian Society of Animal Science in 1952, also serving on the editorial board of the Journal of Nutrition, the Canadian Journal of Animal Science, and the Journal of the European Association of Animal Production. In recognition of Dr. Bell’s many contributions, he received more than twenty major awards, including Fellow of the Agriculture Institute of Canada (FAIC), Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (FRSC), Doctor of Science (McGill University), and Officer in the Order of Canada (1972). He also was invested into the Saskatchewan Agricultural Hall of Fame. Dr. Bell’s dedication to the field of animal nutrition was demonstrated by his response to receiving the James McAnsh Award from the Canola Council of Canada. Dr. Bell, the first recipient of this award, chose not to accept the cash award, and directed that the money be used to establish the J.M. Bell Post Graduate Scholarship in Animal Nutrition at the U of S. Dr. Bell died in Saskatoon in 1998.
