Biographical History

Bertram Charles Binning was born in Medicine Hat, Alberta and grew up in Vancouver where he later attended art school before pursuing his studies in Oregon, Greenwich Village, New York and London. He joined the University of British Columbia School of Architecture in 1949 after many years as instructor at the Vancouver School of Arts. In 1955, he became head of the Department of Fine Arts which he had helped establish. He resigned the position in 1968 to devote more time to teaching and painting. Binning retired from the university in 1973. The list of Binning's direct or indirect creations beyond his artwork include the founding of the Department of Fine Arts, the development of the UBC Fine Arts Gallery, the initiation of the Brock Hall Collection of Canadian Art, the conception and direction of the Festival of Contemporary Arts, and the negotiations for the planning of the Nitobe Memorial Garden.
