    Please join us for a special evening celebrating the release of BEFORE DURING AFTER: Louisiana Photographers’ Visual Reactions to Hurricane Katrina.  This book is a through-the-lens visual and literary exploration of how Hurricane Katrina has transformed the lives and work of twelve photographers. Five years in the wake of the storm, we discover Katrina’s imprint on the creative expression of each artist. Adding depth to the pictorial representation, each photographer has written an intimate account of how Katrina changed his or her life, work and vision of the future. The photographers include: Eric Julian Elizabeth Kleinveld Rowan Metzner David Rae Morris Tom Neff Sam Portera Frank Relle Jen Shaw Mark Sindler Zack Smith Jonathan Trraviesa Lori Waselchuk   There will be a presentation and book signing featuring John Biguenet, who wrote the Foreword and Afterword, Editor and Photographer Elizabeth Kleinveld (who conceived the book), Creative Director Tom Varisco and many of the contributing photographers. We saw it. We captured it. We are forever changed by it.
