The Art of Vernissage

My portfolio consists of a wide range of projects tailored to the individual needs of my clients, from consulting to hand-on assistance.

Over the course of my career, I have curated over 100 museum exhibitions, ranging from historical shows of Impressionist paintings, ancient Egyptian artifacts, and Inuit art to experimental photography, AI-generated videos, interactive neon sculpture, and huge balloon installations.  Many of them have been interpreted through an interdisciplinary lens.

I have worked with many renowned artists, including Sam Gilliam, Peter Halley, Howardena Pindell, Faith Ringgold, Hunt Slonem, and Keith Sonnier.  Other exhibitions I have curated have focused on the legacy of significant Louisiana artists, such as Fritz Bultman, Lin Emery, Angela Gregory, Frank Hayden, Ida Kohlmeyer, and John T. Scott.
