To mark the 20th anniversary of this historic event, Ogden Museum of Southern Art presents the work of six artists that directly address the storm, its devastation and the resiliency of the people impacted. Through their practice, these artists bore witness to both the physical and psychological damage wrought by the storm. They crafted complex narratives, built monuments to resiliency and offered prayers for recovery. Through their work, they attempted to process this event, and as a result offer that same opportunity for healing to the viewer.

The Unending Stream is a two-part exhibition that showcases the thriving community of photographers in New Orleans. The title of the exhibition pays homage to a Clarence John Laughlin photograph of the same title, which is a part of the permanent collection at Ogden Museum of Southern Art. Laughlin’s seminal work, created between the 1930s and 1950s, is an important chapter in the long-storied relationship between New Orleans and photography. Following in his visionary footsteps, this exhibition focuses on emerging and underrepresented photographers who continue to focus on the South through poetic imagery.The Unending Stream celebrates New Orleans’ continuing role as one of America’s most important cultural capitals while also highlighting the role that the arts have played in revitalizing the region for the past twenty years since Hurricane Katrina.

This exhibition draws its title from an often-repeated phrase from artist and Xavier professor John T. Scott. Scott guided his students with the mantra "Each one teach one," instilling a practice of giving and mentorship alongside developing artistic skills. John T. Scott was both a graduate of Xavier and a professor, beginning his teaching career there in 1965. After his death in 2007, former Xavier President Norman C. Francis recalled, “He had a very famous admonition that all of us remember. He didn’t want thanks. Just pass it on. Pass it on to others.” His legacy of excellence in his practice and of giving back to the community was transformational in Xavier's Department of Fine Arts and the lives and work of his students. That legacy continues under the stewardship of Ron Bechet, current department head and co-curator of this exhibition. Each One Teach One is a celebration and illustration of those founding and cultivated principles of excellence and community that define Xavier University of Louisiana.

Picturing the human condition, the relationship between photographer and subject, and the inherent power of perception that the camera possesses is addressed throughout the exhibition.
