"THE ST. CLAUDE SCENE: With great photo shows at Barrister's and Farrington-Smith, engaging installations at KK Projects, and a peculiar take on Brad Pitt's "Make It Right" project at l'art Noir... art adventurers may want to visit the newest scene in town." - Times-Picayune, Dec. 28 2007

It's that bracing spirit of art anarchy that makes the on-and-near St. Claude Avenue art scene the spot to watch in 2008." - Doug MacCash, Times-Picayune, Dec. 28, 2007
