 John
S. Zeringue III, a native New Orleanian, has exhibited
works throughout Louisiana. During his New Orleans
public art honorarium of "Sobek's Hydra"
in the "Festival of Fins" John's work was
on display at the prestigious Contemporary Arts Center
of New Orleans. Since 2000 John has won four public
art honorariums and five awards of Merit from the
city of New Orleans and other local art institutions.
His artwork has continued to garner the attention
of admirers and collectors throughout the United States.
He continues to produce new works, including commissions,
and maintains a clientele of private and corporate
collectors.
John
is influenced by his New Orleans culture and heritage,
namely Mardi Gras. The human form is the common thread
running throughout his body of work and the subject
for which he is most known and appreciated. Whether
depicting the mythical and symbolic in his Mardi Gras
costume designs, or the recurrent themes of ordinary
pursuits of pleasure, and leisure in his collection
of male nudes, Mr. Zeringue's style and quality is
readily recognized. |
