D’origine polonaise, Liliana Berezowsky arrive enfant, en 1948, au Canada et complète un baccalauréat en sociologie à l’Université de Toronto avant de déménager en Amérique du Sud, où elle séjourne pendant six ans. Elle obtient un baccalauréat en beaux-arts à l’Université Concordia, en 1984, et y termine une maîtrise en beaux-arts, en 1989. Elle y enseigne depuis 1988, à titre de chargée de cours en sculpture et dessin. Sculpteure prolifique, elle a conçu de nombreuses œuvres d’art public et ses œuvres font partie de nombreuses collections, dont celle du Musée des beaux-arts du Canada.

Ses premières oeuvres, de tailles monumentales, s’inspirent du paysage industriel et de la machine. Berezowsky se concentre par la suite sur une série de plus petites sculptures basées sur le principe d’objets trouvés et de l’espace intérieur. Ses oeuvres actuelles, créées à partir de matériaux non-traditionnels, sont tantôt grandes, tantôt petites.

Liliana Berezowsky

Polish-born Liliana Berezowsky arrived in Canada as a child in 1948. She earned a BA in sociology at the University of Toronto before moving to South America, where she lived for six years. She earned a BFA in 1984 and a MFA in 1989, both at Concordia University. She has taught at Concordia University since 1988, as a lecturer in sculpture and drawing. A prolific sculptor, she has created numerous works of public art and her works are in many collections, including that of the National Gallery of Canada.

Berezowsky’s early artworks, monumental in size, were inspired by the industrial landscape and machinery. She then concentrated on a series of smaller sculptures based on the principle of found objects and interior space. Her current works, created from non-traditional materials, are sometimes large, sometimes small.
