New Orleans is a collage. The persistence of so many cultures and narratives in this small city is apparent visually everytime you take a walk and see the murals next the graffiti, the modern buildings beside the ancient ruins. The same is true as soon as you hear our music, appreciating that no category has been entirely erased: styles and strains invented here a hundred years ago are played everyday, danced to every night, and recombined with newer genres, in just the way that Jazz grew was something new made from old materials, African, European, and Indigenous American. Second Story Gallery members’ mixed media collages and found object sculptures make new connections, and reflect the myriad juxtapositions and connections that make our city what it is, and what it is becoming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
