Past Dec 31, 1969 6:00pm-6:00pm This exhibition explores George Rodrigue’s lifelong fascination with the vivid pageantry of Mardi Gras—a celebration he experienced from his childhood in New Iberia to his later reigns as Mardi Gras King across Louisiana and beyond. Through lively paintings featuring carnival costumes, pageantry, oak trees, and the iconic Blue Dog, Rodrigue captures the spirit of a season defined by tradition, humor, spectacle, and a kaleidoscope of color. The Colors of Mardi Gras highlights the artist’s intimate connection to Carnival and reveals how its exuberance shaped his creative vision throughout his career.
