Rodrigue's poignant "Reflections of New Orleans" collection is a unique series of pieces done on chrome paper. "The reflective nature of the paper is symbolic of our look back at the recovery of New Orleans over the past three years. It reminds us of our resilience in times of crisis" states Rodrigue. Rodrigue has raised nearly $1,500,000 for Gulf Coast disaster relief, through his Blue Dog Relief organization. In his continuous spirit of giving, Rodrigue will donate the chrome paper pieces to five metropolitan museums around the country at the conclusion of this exhibition.

  • NOLA & RODRIGUE forever!!! Two of America's great treasures!

  • Congratulations!! You are an inspiration to so many. Warm Wishes to you and yours over this holiday season.

  • You are my favorite artist of all time...there is nothing that pleases my eye more than your images. Congratulations on your honors from the Governor and also on your brilliant new show. Hope you and your family have a lovely holiday season.

  • It really astounds me that you always manage to re-invent the same wonderful image in such creative ways! And well done for raising all that money for such an important cause. I wish you would come to England some time!
