It is POURING rain today.
So, Joy and I have decided not to try our luck out and about as we had planned to do, but to stick close to our respective arks instead.
No problem. Instead of heading out on a new adventure, I guess I’ll share some photos with you from last week’s adventures.
French Quarter Fest dominated our weekend.
Zack Smith, the Official FQF Photographer, took these terrific photos of several of the horn players who performed at the festival. You can see all of his FQF photos here on his blog.
Mike’s and my favorite French Quarter Festival photo by Zack Smith is this one…
which we will soon be adding to our art collection. Thank you, Zack!
Last week we were lucky to catch the tail end of the Newcomb Art Museum of Tulane exhibition of Kate Clark‘s “Mysterious Presence.”
“Choosing Her Words”
“Ceremony”
“She Gets What She Wants”
“Fortitude”
“Galant”
“Preoccupied”
Across the hall from the Kate Clark exhibition was the Andrea Dezso exhibition “I Wonder.”
Dezso is a multimedia artist working with embroidery, illustration, ceramics, pencil and marker drawings, and tunnel books. I absolutely relate to her approach, described in the catalog of her work as “revisiting traditional ‘female’ applied arts in an often irreverent and humorous manner.”
