Known as an ecc entric recluse\, McNease avoided the social trappings of the art world\, c hoosing instead to live an isolated existence among the swamps\, bayous an d rivers of Southeast Louisiana. The full depth and importance of McNease ’s art practice was not known until after his death in 2014. This exhibi tion shines a light on this misunderstood and underappreciated artist whos e contribution and innovative use of photography and painting has been ove rlooked due in part by his refusal to participate in the commercial art ga llery and museum system. \nLearn more about the exhibition \n/// Event ima ge: Tom McNease\, Flow through What Spacial Unknown of Dimension\, 1977\, Gelatin silver print\, 10 x 8 inches\, Gift of Jan Katz\, 2022.7.1 LAST-MODIFIED:20260902T001500Z URL:https://ogdenmuseum.org/event/new-exhibition-opening-12/ X-SOURCE-NAME:Ogden Museum of Southern Art X-SOURCE-URL:https://ogdenmuseum.org/tag/new-orleans-event END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Craft Happy Hour DTSTART:20260916T230000Z DTEND:20260917T010000Z DTSTAMP:20260902T001500Z UID:10006421-1789581600-1789588800@ogdenmuseum.org CATEGORIES:drink DESCRIPTION:In this hands-on workshop\, participants will explore techniqu es used in quilt-making and sewn assemblage\, including improvisational co mposition\, appliqué stitching and hand quilting.
