Calgary-born artist Jeff de Boer has, for
the past 32 years, become world-famous
for creating some of the most original and
high-quality sculptures in the world. The son
of a metal fabricator, Jeff grew up working
in metal. Graduating with honours from the
Jewellery and Metals Department of the then
Alberta College of Art in 1988, Jeff went on
to fuse jewellery-level quality and design to
large-scale public art.
Best known for his authentic suits of armour
for cats and mice, Jeff’s work is highly
sought after by private collectors from
around the world. Having completed some
3,000 projects, from small jewellery to large
public works, Jeff has set the standard for
professionalism in the arts. His public work
can be found throughout Alberta, in multiple
locations from parks and hospitals, to museums, shopping malls and airports.
Jeff has always given back to the arts
community, be it as an instructor, lecturer or
as a mentor to countless emerging artists. Jeff
is currently on the Board of Directors for the
National access Arts Centre and for Calgary
Arts Development Authority.
