Katrina Portraits at the Louisiana State Museum

An exhibition of 14 photographs by Thomas Neff was on view in 2011 at the The Presbytere (751 Chartres Street, New Orleans). The images are from Neff’s work: Holding Out and Hanging On: Surviving Hurricane Katrina. These moving portraits, of individuals who rode out Hurricane Katrina in 2005, are traditional silver gelatin prints recorded with a large format (5×7) camera.

This work was featured in the Lumière exhibition: Southern Exposures in June of 2008.

The Louisiana State Museum is mounting a series of changing exhibitions, lectures and events as part of a permanent exhibition Living with Hurricanes: Katrina and Beyond.
