Sharing the name of Handel's three act opera since its doors opened in October of 1990, Ariodante has become a welcome addition to the New Orleans Arts District. After featuring a wide array of unique Crafts for a decade, the gallery then spread its wings with the addition of fine arts in 2001. Today, we currently exhibit a variety of glass, jewelry, furniture, ceramics, mosaics, photography and paintings from predominantly local and Gulf-coast artists. Ariodante continues to reach out to the art community exhibiting veteran and emerging artists.
Susan Landry
Giclée Prints on Canvas by Susan Landry
Susan Landry was a local, self-taught folk artist from New Orleans. Her artwork shows her reverse painting on glass: a technique called Eglomise, which dates back to the pre-Roman era, but named by the French decorator and art-dealer Jean-Baptise Glomy (1711–1786). Susan has shown her work at Ariodante Contemporary Craft Gallery, located at 535 Julia St. The proceeds from the sale of these prints will fund her medical bills and go into a trust in her memory authorized by her spouse Martha Brewer
Giclée is a neologism coined in 1991 by printmaker Jack Duganne for fine art digital prints made on ink-jet printers. The name originally applied to fine art prints created on IRIS printers in a process invented in the late 1980s but has since come to mean any high quality ink-jet print and is often used by artist, galleries, and print shops to denote such prints.
This is a memorable opportunity for you to own a piece of work by Susan Landry or give it as a unique gift:

ARTIST STATEMENT:
Local, self-taught folk artist, Susan is strongly inspired and influenced by New Orleans music, sub-cultures and inner city activities. Her mixed media pieces exhibit her unique ability to paint backwards on glass: a technique, Eglomise, which dates back to the pre-Roman era, but named by the French decorator and art-dealer Jean-Baptise Glomy (1711–1786). She began painting at the age of 35 when experimenting with an old windowpane.
Susan’s pieces are constructed and layered with her canvas paintings, wood, metal and found local objects. Susan’s art has been exhibited at fine art galleries around the city including the Contemporary Arts Center, d.o.c.s., Stella Jones, and The Brewer-Landry Gallery. Susan’s work was also shown at Sorelle’s in Little Rock
After Katrina’s flooding, Susan’s heart-felt painting of flooded shotgun houses “Proud To Swim Home” was screen printed on tee shirts in collaboration with the Save Nola printer. All revenues from the sale of these shirts were donated to the New Orleans Covenant House. Susan regularly donates art for local charity auctions.
