==Life==
Kopel Gurwin was born in Vilna in 1923 to a religious Jewish family. He was a teenager when World War II broke out. During the War, his parents and sister perished and he and his brother, Mayshke kept each other alive in the camps. (Mayshke became a well-known Yiddish poet.) After the war, Kopel was taken to Sweden by Count Bernadotte as part of a large contingent of Jewish youth who survived. While Kopel was in Sweden, he rediscovered his artistic talents, which he had even as a young child. In 1950, Kopel came to Israel, and after serving in the army, he enrolled in Bezalel to study commercial graphic art. He was older by a few years than many of his classmates, because of his experiences in the Holocaust. While he was in Bezalel, he developed his calligraphy skills and he went on to win the award for calligraphy upon graduation. He then commenced work at Grundman, one of the few graphic art concerns in Israel at that time.
In the early 1960s, Kopel became friends with Avram Sokolovsky, a trained electrical engineer who worked for the Israel Electric Corporation, since they were both part of the same artistic circle in Tel Aviv. Kopel told Avram that he had always wanted to work in fabric art. The two men developed the novel idea of making tapestries based on verses from the Bible and after a while, Avram formed a corporation called Kol Hator to employ Kopel and to distribute his Jewish artwork.
