About Jacob Azuelos

Jacob Azuelos (1935-2018) was born in Meknes, Morocco. In 1952, he emigrated to Israel  and worked at Kibbutz Sarid. It is on the Kibuttz that Azuelos’ passion for sculpting began. He worked with Olive wood carving and manipulating the material.
In 1977, Azuelos moved to England and his interest in sculpture was growing. He attended a sculpture course in Devon and continued to produce sculptures right up until the end of his life.

His works have been exhibited across Europe and America with a following of private collectors. His work whilst generally figurative moves towards abstraction with a dynamic and rhythmic quality such as The Dance.
