Yosi Barzilai

YOSI BARZILAI Sarajo, the creation of Yosi Barzilai, was one of SoHo's premier gallery destinations for thirty-five years. Yosi, who hails from Israel and was exposed to Islamic art during his upbringing, embarked on this artistic journey after graduating from art school. Prior to that, he had worked in his family's diamond business, which, while lucrative, failed to satisfy his creative soul. Yosi, sometimes known as Joe, later joined forces with Sarah Penn, the renowned proprietor of Knobkerry, resulting in the birth of the amalgamated name Sarajo. Sarajo's initial establishment graced the intersection of Broadway and Prince, but it underwent six relocations, including a brief sojourn in Portland, Maine. Originally purveying a diverse array of ethnographic artifacts, Sarajo underwent a transformation into a distinctive gallery specializing in textiles and costumes. Its clientele comprised creative talents within the fashion and interior decorating industries, along with collectors and museums across the United States and around the globe. From luminaries such as Miuccia Prada and Peter Marino to icons like Kate Moss and Mick Jagger, the client roster attested to Yosi's unwavering commitment to offering the finest and most rare treasures. Under the new stewardship of Jess Petino, Sarajo has transitioned [...]
