PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid-crystal composition and a liquid-crystal element exhibiting a high-order parameter. SOLUTION: This liquid-crystal composition comprise an azo compound represented by following general formula (1) (wherein, A denotes an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkoxy group, an alkoxycarbonyl group or an acyloxy group; B denotes hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, amino group, an acylamino group, an alkyl or an arylsulfonylamino group, hydroxy group, an alkoxy group, an acyloxy group or an alkoxycarbonyl group; Q<1> and Q<2> denote each independently a bivalent aromatic ring group or cyclohexanediyl group; L<1> and L<2> denote each independently a bivalent connecting group; Ar<1> and Ar<2> denote each independently a bivalent aromatic ring group; m<1> and m<2> denote each independently 0 or 1; n denotes any integer of 1-3; and q denotes any integer of 3-10). The liquid-crystal element comprises the liquid-crystal composition.
