"After my friend and fellow Artist Jeffrey Cook’s untimely death, I
decided to document our Contemporary Art scene in New Orleans. The

“I have a simple philosophy about life and death. How easily it comes
and how easily it can end! What man can afford to waste time? At any

unimportant. The only thing that matters is the work that one has
accomplished.” – King Hussein 1

Make it Right: From Concept to Community: CAC
Opening Reception: Saturday, August 1 at Whitney White Linen Night
In December 2007, more than two years after Hurricane Katrina devastated the Lower 9th Ward, the once-vibrant neighborhood was still silent and razed and the community frustrated by the lack of rebuilding progress. After touring the area and meeting with neighborhood groups and families, actor Brad Pitt was moved by the injustice he saw to "Make It Right." Pitt created the Make It Right Foundation to help the Lower 9th Ward recover by building 150 affordable, green high quality design homes in the neighborhood closest to the Industrial Canal levee breach.
From Pitt's concept, a thriving and growing community has grown. Fourteen families now live on the site, 19 homes are under construction and another 49 families are in process. The first 13 local, national and international architects who contributed their designs to Make It Right based their work on the traditional New Orleans "shotgun" home. In June 2009, a second round of 14 architects submitted designs based on traditional New Orleans' "duplexes" (two-family homes). For the first time, the models of the duplex designs will be on display beginning August 1 at the Contemporary Arts Center in New Orleans. In addition, the exhibition, Make It Right: From Concept to Community, will trace the evolution of the first generation of houses from design to finished houses and thriving neighborhood, and detail the pioneering materials, processes and technologies being used in the Lower 9th Ward that will benefit communities across America.
Gallery hours: Thursday through Sunday, 11am-4pm.
Gallery admission: $5/general, $3/students & seniors, FREE To CAC members.
For information, call (504) 528-3805

When Lafcadio Hearn moved to New Orleans in the 1870s, he wrote to a friend
back in Cincinnati:
"Times are not good here. The city is crumbling into ashes. It has been
buried under a lava flood of taxes and frauds and maladministrations so that
it has become only a study for archaeologists. Its condition is so bad that
when I write about it, as I intend to do soon, nobody will believe I am
telling the truth. But it is better to live here in sackcloth and ashes,
than to own the whole state of Ohio."

Support Dirty Linen Night, Forget the Rest!
The status of Dirty Linen Night, discussed here, is known! It appears that the *FREE* Dirty Linen Night is still on for August 8th from 6-9pm, despite the Vieux Carre Soiree's simultaneous, more corporate (read: cheesy) pirate-themed event. I encourage everyone to participate in Dirty Linen Night as it was meant to be: a *FREE* open gallery event with beautiful art, wine sipping and sans pirates. This is Royal Street afterall, not Bourbon.

"Dirty Linen Night" No More?
According to an article here, a beloved New Orleans tradition - Dirty Linen Night - has been usurped by the "Vieux Carre' Soiree". Currently, it is being reported that the founder of Dirty Linen Night owns the trademark "Dirty Linen Night". This year's producer of the event, Fleur de Lis Consulting, along with Glazer's Companies of Louisiana and the Young Professionals Society, decided to change the name. The Dirty Linen Night event, held annually one week after its White Linen Night counterpart on Julia Street, (this year on August 1,) has not been reached for comment.
The Vieux Carre Soiree is asking for interested attendees to visit their Facebook fan page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Vieux-Carre-Soiree/120639040943
More information as it becomes available.

Steve Martin Concept Studio Gallery
Steve Martin Studio Concept Gallery
The mission of Steve Martin Concept Gallery is to provide an approachable exhibition space in the New Orleans area for experimental and often under-represented art projects dismissed by traditional galleries and museums. A pioneer in the local visual arts scene, Steve Martin Studio fills a void, left by established museums and commercial art galleries, and allows opportunities for emerging artists and alternative art forms to be exhibited publicly.
Steve Martin Studio Concept Gallery plans an exhibition schedule of at least 6 shows per year. The gallery seeks diversity in its programming and embraces submissions that utilize materials and concepts both inside and outside the bounds of traditional art. Submissions are reviewed by a committee, and are generally submitted at least four months in advance. Artists from around the world may apply for exhibition.
For at least two shows per season, Steve Martin Studio Concept Gallery seeks to unite local artist with national or international artist through either a juried competition or guest curated shows. An integral component in the objectives of the gallery, this program is threefold in purpose. First, it serves to attract national or international artists to New Orleans, and to expose the community to experimental art projects from a diversity of cultural backgrounds. Second, the program intensifies the experience of the national or international artists: as they show alongside local artists, these artists experience the community on a local level. This provides the artists expanded access to local resources and allows the artist to build a relationship with the community. Finally, the program furthers the experience of the local artist. In showing with an artist of similar interests or background from outside New Orleans, the local artist develops a knowledge and relationship with artists of other art communities, thereby gaining access to art communities outside New Orleans.
A converted row-house, located in one of the Thirteen Sisters on Julia Street in the Heart of the New Orleans Art District, Steve Martin Studio Concept Gallery offers several rooms of exhibition. The exhibition venue is approximately 290 square feet, the interior is comprised of white walls standing twelve feet tall, with bright, even lighting, typical historic architectural elements and details, whitewashed cypress flooring and large historic styled windows and doors.
Beyond the physical presentation space, the Steve Martin Fine Art website will be a vital accompaniment to the exhibitions and creates an additional exhibition space preserving and presenting with increased public accessibility the accomplishments of the gallery and its exhibitions. The website is constantly expanding, and submissions are welcomed continually.
Steve Martin Studio Concept Gallery eeks to promote the practices of contemporary artists from the local, national and international scenes. The multidisciplinary program will comprise exhibitions, lectures and meetings with artists, in addition to art publication activity and the production of thematic projects and new artworks. Its aims are to present a calendar of activities that facilitate critical discussion and reflection within the community.
A selection committee will choose from projects submitted by artists or curators, while other projects will be generated by invitation. Each project is given the support required for its achievement. Steve Martin Studio Concept Gallery offers a broad platform for ideas. By taking on curators, sponsors, and contributors from other horizons Steve Martin Studio Concept Gallery allows a greater number of artists, collectors, and the viewing public access to enjoy the benefits of its resources thereby extending debates on contemporary art to a wider audience. In proposing new ways of exhibiting artwork, Steve Martin Studio Concept Gallery questions various means and attitudes towards art dissemination. Thematic projects initiated and produced by the staff stimulate exploratory artistic creation and facilitate the development of critical thinking through lectures and publicity they receive. Our goal in creating such activities is to serve as a focal point where the broader public, artists, curators, collectors and researchers visiting and from the New Orleans area and elsewhere can experience dynamic encounters and discussions around contemporary art.
