Drawn from New Orleans:
Twentieth-Century Works from Private Collections

April 24 - June 30, 2007

Organized by Interim Gallery Director, Thomas Strider, Drawn from New Orleans: Twentieth-Century Works from Private Collections, is an exhibition of more than 125 works on paper borrowed from private collections across the city.
 
The show includes drawings in charcoal, ink, pastel, and watercolor by artists such as George Bellows, Hans Hofmann, Robert Motherwell, Helen Frankenthaler, Alex Katz, Isabel Bishop, and Jacqueline Humphries.  Also featured are drawings by several Newcomb College alumnae including Lynda Benglis, Angela Gregory, and Ida Kohlmeyer as well as former Newcomb faculty members Ellsworth Woodward and Jean Seidenberg. 

“I believe the Gallery's audience will be excited to see the depth and range of works that exist in New Orleans,” noted Strider.  “It has been reassuring that so many local collectors hold the Gallery in high regard and are willing to lend their works to an exhibition that will contribute to the health of visual culture at Tulane and in the New Orleans community.”
