FALLEN PARADISE

HOPE MAUSOLEUM, New Orleans LA 2004  from the series FALLEN PARADISE (New Orleans 1995-2005) All reproduction rights reserved Wm. Greiner

Fallen Paradise
(New Orleans - 1995-2005)

The photographs comprising this series were made in or around New Orleans,
between 1995 and 2005. The patina which veiled New Orleans prior to
Hurricane Katrina , but lifted by this event, revealed a paradise which had
already fallen. These photographs are a testament to that notion.

Exhibition has been extended to end of May , 2009:

WOW!Interesting topic. Honesty, I never really payed any attention to New Orleans before Hurricane Katrina. I had to write a term paper on the History Of New Orleans one year after Hurrican Katrina. The Photo's tell the real story I think. Great work.

I had lived and worked in New Orleans most of my career, until Katrina hit! I no longer had the heart or desire to photograph my home town! The vultures appeared to document the whole scene, which made it even less palatable. Katrina did make me go back and look at older work, Pre 2005 , and it struck me that the photographs now took on another whole dimension. What resulted was the exhibition FALLEN PARADISE (New Orleans 1995-2005).
