Guillaume Azoulay
Artist Name: Guillaume Azoulay Technique: Mixed media on paper
Guillaume Azoulay, a self-taught artist, was
born in Casablanca, Morocco in 1949. As Azoulay met people from various parts of the
world, his interest in traveling grew and when he was fourteen, he left home
and hitchhiked across Europe and the Middle East. His desire to see and be part
of the life, history and beauty of the world took him from Copenhagen to Rome,
from Lisbon to Jerusalem. Azoulay made the world his university, people were
his main subject with their joys and pains and ways of life. Guillaume became
fluent in five languages. Eventually, Azoulay settled in Israel in 1967
where he applied to Betzalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem, the Middle
East’s most famous art academy. They rejected his application but this did not
deter Azoulay from continuing his studies. Azoulay studied drama and graduated
as an actor. Azoulay appeared in the Israeli production of the rock musical
“Hair” as well as other shows on the Israeli stage. Unable to share his time
fully between the theater and painting, Azoulay chose the expression of visual
art. After moving several times Azoulay settled in California in March of 1976
where he now lives with his family. Azoulay’s wife is Charmaine Seal, a noted
ballerina, yet another one of Azoulay’s favorite subjects in his artwork. They
have two sons Lawrence and Arnoud, and daughter Ondine who is the subject of an
etching that is part of the collection of the Bibliotheque National Du Louvre
in Paris. His Work Payment Methods: PayPal, Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard), Bank Cheque. If you wish to send a personal cheque, please note that the item will not be shipped until the cheque clears.
