History, people, fables and critical essays on the 24/7 life of the French Quarter. “The great music of the city is…when you say good morning and good evening.” (Mr. Jerome Smith)
The exhibition explores the lives and work of Gypsy Lou and Jon Webb through objects from Blair’s Collection as well as paintings by Rockmore (including his widely recognized “Homage to the French Quarter”) and photographs by Johnny Donnels. The display also includes copies of each title in Loujon’s small but celebrated catalogue, while illuminating the Webbs’ relationships with other self-proclaimed outsiders—the people, the places and the environment that inspired the creation of Loujon Press.
“The exhibition offers a glimpse into the vibrant artistic life of the French Quarter in the early ‘60s and introduces visitors not only to the aesthetic of that time but to the fascinating people that created it.” said Cave
