      <description><![CDATA[

Robert Colescott died in June at his home in Tucson, Ariz. He was
83. The first black American to represent the United States in a solo
show at the Venice Biennale, his work was in many major collections
including the Museum of Modern Art in New York. He had close ties to

Organized by Contemporary Arts Center visual arts director Dan
Cameron, Hot Up Here picks up where the CAC's Louisiana
Open biennial series left off. Although the artists are drawn from
galleries all over town, the tone is distinctly St. Claude Avenue, and

      <description><![CDATA[

Intimate. Beautiful. Disturbing. Such are the adjectives applied to
the work of Sibylle Peretti, whose visions of children convey a quietly
mysterious otherworld. Like a parallel universe, Paretti-world is part
dream and part fairy tale, but it also resonates with a certain reality

For some time, Monica Zeringue has intrigued viewers with her
enigmatic, surreal and meticulous drawings of little girls wearing
little more than their underwear as they pursue dreamlike pastimes.
Despite their tender age, their sensuality seems almost adult or even
suggestive &mdash; but...]]></description>

Nature gives and nature takes away. Weather and wild animals have
always caused people to seek shelter, and the botanical world has often
provided it, along with food and medicine. The "Leaves of Grass"
references in the work of poet Walt Whitman and the Bible refer to the
common vulnerab...]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[
Tony Fitzpatrick has been called a master printmaker, but he's also
a poet, actor and inveterate gadabout. And when it comes to
gallivanting, his favored stomping grounds are his old hometown of
Chicago and his occasional home of New Orleans, where he attunes
himself to the poetry of the s... By D. Eric Bookhardt.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[
If you haven't already seen Bo Bartlett's paintings at the Ogden
Museum, by all means go. Even if you remain skeptical, as I did, it's a
show worth seeing simply on its merits as a visual spectacle.
Bartlett's vivid canvases are larger than life in almost every way. An
occasional filmmaker...]]></description>

&ensp;&ensp;For ages, Sandra Russell Clark has been a photographer
of trees and landscapes, creating sensually ethereal views of misty
gardens and windswept Gulf Coast vistas that reflect her own
impressionistic, neo-romantic approach. A New Orleans native and
longtime Bay St. Louis, Miss...]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[
There are places where Jessica Goldfinch might be considered over
the top, and not just in the Bible Belt regions of the Deep South and
Midwest. It is also true that works like her statue of a visibly
pregnant Virgin Mary are not likely to grace local shrines anytime
soon. Still, in a city... By D. Eric Bookhardt.]]></description>

Despite all the art world talk about movements, ideas and themes,
sense of place has remained one of the most consistent influences on
personal creativity for at least a century. How much of Edward Hopper's

work, is really... By D. Eric Bookhardt.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[

What is it about hair? Imbued with a mystical aura since the days of
Samson and Delilah, it can almost define certain people &mdash; for
instance, Elvis or Dolly Parton's iconic coifs, or Sarah Palin's famous
hair extensions. Loren Schwerd's show at AMMO touches on all of the
above. The t...]]></description>

"I paint and draw light," says Simon Gunning, and if that sounds
almost biblical, his new Avery Island landscapes conjure a place so
primeval as to evoke the birth of the world. There Gunning became
fascinated by the saline swamp, a place he calls "lyrical and
dangerous" for its "lurid arr... By D. Eric Bookhardt.]]></description>

Lately, there has been much consternation regarding Louisiana's
