In recognition of the 20th Anniversary of Hurricane Katrina we are releasing the Saratoga Collection book featuring 41 emerging and mid-career artists mostly of color who decided to live and work in New Orleans post Hurricane Katrina. The book's release will coincide with the upcoming exhibition in November 2025 at the Alexandria Museum of Art in which the Saratoga Collection is in its permanent collection. The Saratoga Collection documents and further validates the burgeoning contemporary art scene developing in the New Orleans St. Claude and Bywater arts districts, but more importantly, artists from marginalized and underrepresented communities of color, LGBTQ and mature who have decided to live and work in New Orleans post Hurricane Katrina. The Saratoga Collection features notable artists: Katrina Andry, Keith Duncan, Robert Tannen, Bruce Davenport Jr, Rebecca Rebouche and Alex Podesta to name a few. The artists in this collection are relevant, coherent and offer a peek into the world of the new New Orleans contemporary art movement.
