LA Times reports an artist from LA brings his talent to New Orleans, L.A. for
Prospect.1 [P1]
prospectneworleans.org
"On November 1, 2008, Prospect.1 New Orleans [P.1], the largest biennial of international contemporary art ever organized in the United States, will open to the public in museums, historic buildings, and found sites throughout New Orleans. Prospect.1 New Orleans [P.1] has been conceived in the tradition of the great international biennials, and will showcase new artistic practices as well as an array of programs benefiting the local community. Over the course of its eleven-week run, Prospect.1 New Orleans [P.1] plans to draw international media attention, creative energy, and new economic activity to the city of New Orleans."

I wonder how many people knew about Pawpaw's Ark located off HWY90 in between New Orleans and Houma? It was located next to the Daquari/Tamale/Bait/Market with the Giant Blue Gorilla out front. Anyone?
It sure was a big boat Pawpaw!

I like the roll that Prospect One is breathing new life into our culturally rich community and making the rest of the world take notice for our talents and creative endeavors.
