Jacob Wexler (German: Jakob Wechsler, Hebrew: יעקב וכסלר‎; 15 November 1912 – 21 March 1995) was an Israeli artist and art teacher. He was one of the founders of the Ofakim Hadashim art movement. His artistic endeavors are replete with stylistic shifts, from figurative to abstract, and back to figurative, yet the point of departure was always structural: "You will always be all right when you are all right with your shapes. The color – that will come into the painting in any case. Every shape belongs to another shape, and another shape, and another, and together all the shapes create the structure of the painting. It is the structure that influences, not because this is the sky, or a house, or a figure, but because it creates a tension of form, and that is what creates the atmosphere."
