This latest edition features Debbie Fleming Caffery, who has been documenting the Louisiana sugar cane harvest, the plight of prostitutes in Mexican brothels, and more recently the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The documentary travels with her through the mud of the sugar cane mills, to the devastated homes of New Orlean's Ninth Ward, and to the South of France for the Les Rencontres Arles Photography Festival. In the Photo Commentary, she divulges the stories behind some of her most touching and poignant images. Plus, the Bonus Feature provides further insights to her creative process. Debbie Fleming Caffery's photographs capture moments of rich beauty in the people and landscapes of the American South and Mexico. A native of Louisiana, Caffery is most comfortable in the shadows, drawn to movements, patterns and deep tonality. Caffery's photography has garnered praise for over thirty years, and has been included in exhibitions from the Smithsonian Institute to the Photo Gallery International in Tokyo. Her work is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, Whitney Museum, and the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. She was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship in 2005. www.anthropyarts.com

The New Orleans Museum of Art and The Historic New Orleans Collection are proud to present their seventh joint exhibition, Women Artists in Louisiana, 1965-2010. The show resumes where last spring's exhibition, Women Artists in Louisiana, 1825-1965: A Place of Their Own, left off. The new exhibition continues to focus on the creative legacy of the state's women artists, starting with the dawn of postmodernism and bringing viewers to the present day. On view are forty-four paintings, sculpture, photographs, and decorative arts by forty artists. The works include portraits, landscapes, genre scenes, non-objectives, and abstracts. Among the featured artists are Martha Ambrose, Jacqueline Bishop, Lynda Benglis, Jane Nulty Bowman, Dawn Dedeaux, Lin Emery, Mignon Faget, Suzanne Joslyn Fosberg, Joanne Greenberg, Angela Gregory, Shearly Grode, Ronna Harris, Gail Hood, Ann Hornback, Jacqueline Humphries, Ida Kohlmeyer, Carol Leake, Shirley RabŽ Masinter, Chyrl Savoy, Eugenie "Ersy" Schwartz, Ann Strub, Patricia Whitty, Margaret Witherspoon, Mildred Wohl, and Jesselyn Zurik. Photographers include Debbie Fleming Caffery, Sandra Russell Clark, Tina Freeman, and Josephine Sacabo. This exhibition features some artists whose reputations are well established locally and nationally, and others who are still emerging. The contributions of these artists of the latter half of the century, understandably, were made possible by earlier women artists.
