Biography
Olaf Borge, who earned his BFA and MFA from School of Art Institute of Chicago, created systemically abstract works consumed with geometry and repetition. His intaglio prints were jewel-like, and he played with printing them in various colors, rather than producing consistent, numbered editions. He taught at SAIC and retired from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1999.
