The Saratoga Collection

The Saratoga Collection, while not systematic or all-inclusive in intent or context, offers a snapshot of the evolution and effervescent nature of contemporary art in Post-Katrina New Orleans. - David Houston, Former Director of the Ogden Museum of Southern Art The Saratoga Collection offers a peek into the world of the new New Orleans contemporary art movement. It serves as an overview of the work being created by artists with a by- any-means-necessary attitude and impeccable work ethic. New Orleans is and always will be a wondrous, turbulent, and beautiful city, that produces artists and artwork of the highest caliber, and that embodies compassion, fearlessness, and humanity. - Terrence Sanders Smith, Curator & Publisher These works were created by individuals living and working in New Orleans since hurricane Katrina, which, along with 9/11/01, now serves as one of our national historical signifiers. To utter the phrase “post-Katrina” is an attempt to describe a sensibility, an assessment; not only an era in time, but an era of culture; a flux marked by alteration, change, cultural evolution. - Adam Falik, Art Critic & Writer As the first curatorial effort to lay the groundwork post Hurricane Katrina for collecting current artwork by New Orleans artists…. - Dan Cameron Curator  While artists of all ages and from across the city are represented in the Saratoga Collection, a preponderance of its energy comes from young artists plying their craft along St. Claude avenue, located in the city’s Ninth Ward, a section of the city perhaps hardest hit by Katrina. Anyone who was here in the weeks just after the flood couldn’t imagine the transformation this corridor had undergone, with artists and galleries undeniably leading its rebirth. – Bill Sasser Art Critic & Writer
