Yaacov Heller

Art is a Universal Language 

Throughout his sixty-year career, Yaacov Heller has created works for world leaders like Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, Yitzhak Rabin, and Anwar Sadat, with pieces featured in presidential libraries and museums globally. One of his most prized pieces is the David and Goliath sculpture, commissioned by Israeli Prime Minister Rabin and gifted to President Ford in 1974, symbolizing Israel’s resilience. Heller also pioneered a silver electroforming process that became a major industry in Israel. His local works in Boca Raton include Flossy’s Fountain, a Count deHoernle sculpture, a bronze menorah at B’nai Torah, Festival Menorahs at Beth Ami, and an eternal light at the Kabbalah Center.
