Salazar: Portraits of Influence in Spanish New Orleans, Jose Francisco Xavier de Salazar y Mendoza (c. 1750-1802)
In conjunction with the Tricentennial celebration of New Orleans, Salazar: Portraits of Influence in Spanish New Orleans will tell the story of Jose Francisco Xavier de Salazar y Mendoza (c. 1750-1802) a native of Merida, Yucatan, whose career spanned most of the Spanish administration of New Orleans. Through a re-examination of about 30 of his most pertinent works, a view of Spanish colonial New Orleans will be achieved. His oeuvre will be further contextualized in relation to works and other historical artifacts reflective of the city as a site of mobility and transatlantic artistic exchange. The Mexican Cultural Institute in New Orleans is pleased to be a collaborator in this exhibition.
