New Orleans Artists: John Burton Harter and George Dureau

Thursday, March 11th, 2021 New Orleans Artists John Burton Harter and George Dureau - Film Tribute These two short pieces feature first the art and story of the late John Burton Harter (1940-2002), who documented the richness of gay experience through his prolific artwork. Harter is most known for exquisite figure studies, especially fine compositions of the male body. These works range from classical studio drawings to completed paintings and self-portraits. He created over 3,000 works of art during his life largely based in New Orleans. The second half focuses on New Orleans native George Dureau (1930-2014), a painter and a photographer best known for his black-and-white photographs exploring the male nude, the working class, little people, and disabled people. Using only natural light from his studio windows, Dureau captured unexpected and nontraditional subjects in formal, classical compositions. This presentation is the work of The Bend Media and made possible by generous support of the John Burton Harter Foundation.
