Last night, my wife and I stumbled on the Red Truck Gallery on the edge of New Orleans' French Quarter, and today we're going back to buy some art, and admire the pieces we can't afford for a while longer.
I can't remember the last time I stepped into an art gallery where the work chimed more strongly with my sensibilities. There's lots to see and do in NOLA, but if you like the kind of art we feature on Boing Boing, this place is worth your while.
