Jammin' Jazz

Madeleine Faust's purple painted welded metal sculpture, "Jammin' Jazz," is an abstract depiction of jazz music. The artist describes its abstract shapes in terms of musical notes and purple sugar from MacKenzie's Mardi Gras King Cakes. I photographed the piece from many different angles.

From the East

Having toured the space around the sculpture, I made my way back. Again I enjoyed some shade as I took more photos. Soon I was back where I started.








Doubling Back

There are some nice shady spots along the way. Once I reached the turn lane, I doubled back to the sculpture. Then I went to the other end of the space.








Approaching from the West

Another sculpture was placed on the median on Veterans Boulevard in Metairie. This one was placed near Phosphor Avenue on Veterans Boulevard. Like before, I walked around and took photos of the newly landscaped space.
