Meadows Museum of Art

The Meadows Museum of Art at Centenary College of Louisiana is dedicated to engaging the community through innovative academic discourse of the arts. Meadows.

Free admission. The Meadows Museum of Art is an educational unit of Centenary College dedicated to presenting original, compelling, and diversified visual art programming. We feature a rotating contemporary art exhibition schedule showcasing international, national, and regional artists. Additionally, as a collecting museum we are charged with the collection, preservation and interpretation of vis

ual artworks. Our Permanent Collection was founded by the donation of the Indochina Collection of Jean Despujols by Algur H. We maintain the spirit of his donation by focusing our collection on artwork that demonstrates artistic theories from the French School of Art with an emphasis on collecting regional artists. The Meadows Museum of Art is accredited by the American Alliance of Museums. Visitor parking is available behind the museum, or across the street.

Thanks for the shoutout Julianne Smoak Moll! As she pointed out, this piece is currently on view in our main downstairs gallery for about another month! No flight to NYC needed! 😜

The “Triumphal Arch” is an impressive 13-foot high, multi-paneled woodcut print created by Albrecht Dürer. Commissioned by the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I, Dürer relied on an entire studio of assistants, students, carvers, and advisors to help him craft this piece. It took more than two years to compete and is one of the largest works of its type ever made.

Triumphal Arch is currently on view at the New York Public Library, who currently possesses several panels of a 1515 first edition, as well as a full set of the 1799 third edition. The work will go into indefinite storage at the library in October of this year.

Cheering on ’s Artemis II mission with these moon-inspired artworks currently on view!

Nancy Graves was an American artist who used topographical maps of the moon, Mars, and the ocean floor as source material for this oversized pointillist painting.

It is displayed alongside Japanese artist Utagawa Hiroshige’s “Tamagawa no shugetsu (Autumn Moon over Tama River).” Otsukimi (moon viewing) is a Japanese festival celebrating the autumn moon—like the one depicted here—that is thought to date back to the Heian period (794-1185 CE).

Students from Dr. Rietveld’s ART 315: Ancient Greek Art course visited the museum this morning!

Each student chose an image to research from one of two books currently housed in the museum. The books resemble scrapbooks, with a variety of Greco-Roman imagery collaged and pasted onto the pages.
