THE STORY OF JOHANNA BONGER

THE STORY OF JOHANNA BONGER

Johanna Bonger's story is one of tenacity, dedication, and an abiding love for the creative process. Her unflinching commitment to preserving and promoting Vincent van Gogh's artwork was crucial to the establishment of his enduring reputation. Johanna Bonger was the woman who never gave up hope for Van Gogh's talent. We celebrate not only the genius of Van Gogh's art but also the strength of Johanna Bonger today.

For the vast majority of art's timeline, the creator's mental health has been an afterthought. But how did an outsider like Van Gogh, who was unrecognized in his time, mentally unstable, prone to alcohol abuse, and almost compulsively burned bridges with those who might have helped him along his artistic path, ascend to the mythic position that he now possesses? Johanna Bonger is the key to the puzzle's solution.

This is the captivating story of Johanna Bonger, Van Gogh's art-loving sister-in-law, who helped transform his tragic life into an artistic triumph.
