Sandy thanks to the generosity

Orleans. Bennett Davis, Leasing

to Larry Henriques, Vice Chair
of the Rebuild Hoboken Relief Fund. “I certainly knew something
about what residents were going through. Our small part of helping
out is a way for us in New Orleans to say ‘thank you’ for all the good
things people did for us after Katrina,” said Davis.

Charity Begins
at Home
ABSTRACT MODES OF EXPRESSION features a diverse group of 26 artists of the African
Diaspora whose influences are many. These non-objective and abstract styles form the basis for an
art which departs from representational or recognizable
objects. Using sculpture, prints, assemblages and
paintings, these artists express thoughts and
feelings about their inner world and
perceptions of the outer world.
Using various textures, forms, colors
and lines as the “subject” of the art,
a composition is created which may
exist with a degree of independence
from visual references in the world.
It is a break from the notion that
a work of art has to represent
something “known to the viewer.”
GALLERY HOURS: Mon-Sat
12noon-6, or by appointment.
For more information, call Stella Jones Gallery, (504)568-9050.

But its not just about the attorneys, Baker Donelson supports charitable events and encourages staff and
attorneys to attend. “Good lawyers that achieve success need a good team, and that includes everyone
from the mailroom to staff, secretaries and the tech guy.”
Jones Walker partner Keith Colvin, has been elected president of
the American College of Mortgage Attorneys. Jones Walker partner
Kelly Duncan was reelected president of the International Masters
