Sculpting came late for my father, Morris Cohen. At the age of 55, in the early 1960s, he took up woodworking as a hobby to relieve headaches caused by stress. After less than a year he graduated to using a mallet and chisel to create works from wood and stone.

Sculpting quickly became his driving passion.

He went into semi-retirement and began spending almost all his time creating art. And what wonderful art it was – dancers leaping in air, full-sized figures teeming with life, free-form sculptures from a remarkably fertile imagination, and more.

Over the next 30 years, my father produced more than 150 works of art. This website is a virtual gallery of those works, a continuing exhibit celebrating the man and his art. If you see a piece of Morris Cohen’s  work that you own, or you own a piece that is not included in this compilation, please contact me.

Here’s looking at you, Pop!
