NEW ORLEANS
Rodrigue's "Reflections of New Orleans" going on now
Rodrigue's poignant "Reflections of New Orleans" collection is a unique series of pieces done on chrome paper. "The reflective nature of the paper is symbolic of our look back at the recovery of New Orleans over the last three years. It reminds us of our resilience in times of crisis," states Rodrigue. Rodrigue has raised nearly $1,500,000 for Gulf Coast disaster relief through his Blue Dog Relief organization. In his continuous spirit of giving, Rodrigue will donate the chrome paper pieces to five metropolitan museums around the country at the conclusion of this exhibition.
