Monica Zeringue and Saskia Ozols Eubanks
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 — but of what?

Still Life and Tragic Endings: New Work by Drew Gilmore and Natalie Nichols
The Generic Art Solutions guys are at it again. Famous for their Art Cops tours of the Prospect.1 biennial, during which they wore cop uniforms and gave guided tours of the P.1 sites in a vintage police cruiser, Matt Vis and Tony Campbell have returned to what, for them, passes for normal: spelunking the meaning of life and death with a variety of visual aids.

John Barnes Jr. — Eschatology: Recent Sculpture and Drawings
It's an unusual name for an art show. Eschatology is a branch of religious study that deals with endings in general and the Last Judgment in particular.

  BECA Gallery on St. Joseph Street, across from the Contemporary Arts Center, bills itself as a "Bridge for Emerging Contemporary Art," and its 2nd Annual Gulf-South Regional show exemplifies a neatly cerebral approach toward that end. Tidy indeed are Luke Sides' Cup Cakes, life-size, cast-iron replicas with cast metal icing.

Industrial Evolution
It looks as experimental as anything you might see on St. Claude Avenue, but this Studio 527 expo involves some very established local art veterans.

The Big Easel- Prospect .1
Not the least of the unprecedented ideas behind Prospect.1, the international art biennial opening this week all across New Orleans, is that the United States' first such major exhibition is happening in a city brought to the edge of ruin just three years earlier. In fact, that led to founder and curator Dan Cameron's inspiration.

Jury Selections
The 12th annual No Dead Artists show features its typical variety of artists and styles.
Time sure does fly. I can remember, albeit dimly, when Jonathan Ferrara, Alex Beard and others were attempting to organize the first No Dead Artists (NDA) show at an earlier gallery back in the mid-'90s, which from this perspective seems a truly bygone time.
