"Salut, 1975"

Kosso
Eloul

....
One
of the many sculptures displayed in Toronto by the artist. Kosso
Eloul was born on January 22, 1920 in Mourom, U.S.S.R., and lived, learned
and worked in Israel, Chicago and moved in 1964 to Toronto. His sculptures
are large and seem to be precariously balanced. In his earlier creative
years granite seemed to be his preferred choice of materials while later
he moved to steel and stainless steel structures. His numerous works
of art are widely displayed in Israel, all over the United States and mostly
in Canada. The artist was involved in international symposiums and
is widely known. He died on November 8, 1995 in Toronto, Ont.
