Degas Gallery in New Orleans is presenting painter Marcia Holmes’s latest solo exhibition, which she has titled “Sojourn.” She lives and works in Mandeville, Louisiana, just 100 yards from the Tchefuncte River, which makes sense given, in her words, “the magnetic connectivity I have to life around water.”
On view are impressionist and abstract scenes that convey “the power of gestural strokes, organic forms, neutrals, and my love of color,” Holmes says. “I’ve allowed myself a new freedom — improvisation that resonates from within.”
Housed in a historic building, Degas Gallery was named for the French impressionist Edgar Degas, who visited members of his family in New Orleans in 1872–73.
The exhibition runs May 1–June 30, 2025. For more information, please visit thedegasgallery.com.
