Yaakov Greenvurcel was born in Poland in 1952 and came to Israel in
1957. In 1980 he graduated with honors from the Bezalel Academy of
Art, Jerusalem. The same year he was awarded the first Shapiro Prize for
Judaica, for his "Ever-Changing Menorah".
Greenvurcel was chosen as one of the winners of the Art Quest 88, an
art competition held in the U.S.A. In 1996, the year celebrated as the
3,000 anniversary of Jerusalem, he designed a Torah Crown especially
for the International Judaica Design Competition. It was awarded an
Honorable Mention including a monetary prize.
