Now Showing

Join us for a powerful and thought-provoking showcase of Becky Gottsegen’s moving work, featuring photorealistic ceramic busts of exonerated individuals from the Louisiana prison system. Through meticulous craftsmanship and deep storytelling, Gottsegen brings visibility to those who have endured wrongful incarceration, capturing their resilience and humanity in stunning detail. This exhibition serves as both an artistic achievement and a poignant reflection on justice, identity, and redemption.

This exhibition is made possible through the generous support of Tricia Day & Joe Simmons, Mary Ann Sternberg and Winifred & Kevin Reilly.

Donations can be made to individual exonerees through IPNO’s website. See how ou can support these men in their efforts of adjusting to life outside prison
