New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts &
Academy Gallery Present
Though Willie Birch and Tina Freeman both fill monumental shoes in New Orleans, the artists’ works have never been presented in as direct of a conversation as in their current two-person exhibition at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts. Titled “Two Versions of the Same Story: The Art of Willie Birch and Tina Freeman,” the presentation brings together two individual bodies of work that hint at the connections between people and place; process and form; and past and present. Excerpt by Charlie Tatum from the Exhibit Catalogue.
