Jeffrey Rubinoff (born October 23, 1945) is a Canadian sculptor and founder of the (Jeffrey Rubinoff Sculpture Park ) where he has lived and worked since 1973. He has produced over 100 sculptures in the last four decades. ==Biography== Rubinoff studied fine art in the United States and completed his Master of Fine Arts in 1969. Subsequently he returned to Canada to pursue his artistic career which included one man shows at the (Helen) Mazelow Gallery in Toronto, the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto, the Nathan Manilow Sculpture Park in Chicago, Queen's Park in Toronto, York University in Toronto, and Two Sculptors in New York.〔Biography adapted from that listed in the description of the 2011 Yale University Forum on Art, War and Science (Yale University Forum | About the Chairs|Jeffrey Rubinoff )〕 In the early 1970s Rubinoff moved to a farm on Hornby Island in British Columbia, living and working on-site for the next four decades to create the majority of his work. His works range from human to monumental scale, and are created exclusively from welded or cast, stainless and CORTEN steel. Rubinoff creates all his sculptures unassisted, and his studio includes a one-man steel foundry, which makes it possible to cast the organic forms found in the later series. In addition to the sculpture, Rubinoff has designed many landscape alterations that have reshaped the farm to suit the exhibition of his sculpture.〔 During the 1990s Rubinoff focused on historical group exhibitions, including David Smith, Anthony Caro, Alexander Calder, Nancy Graves, Mark di Suvero, Tony Smith, George Rickey, Beverly Pepper, and Robert Murray.〔 With regard to the predominant art of his time Rubinoff has stated:
