On upper King street in Charleston, there’s no single gallery that can match the astronomical growth of the Rebekah Jacob Gallery. In the past year alone her gallery reached over $3 million in inventory, and brought in such southern hardball artists as William Eggleston and William Christenberry. according to Jacob, the main focus of the gallery remains “showing contemporary artists of the American South,” and she has accomplished that goal. Now she’s headed out on the road, carrying her clients’ work to art fairs around the world.”
