Now the threads come together. Josabeth carries a rare combination: the business sense of finance, the resilience of the kitchen, and above all a lifelong love of art.
Her aim is France, the promised land of art and culture, where she wants to build a living meeting place. Not simply walls to hang work on, but a room where art can breathe, and where her own sense of life, taste and beauty becomes part of what a visitor feels.
After a lifetime of preparing in the wings, Josabeth Bofeldt is ready to step into the light. The gallery doors are waiting to open.
