Passionate about the arts, Dorian was a preservationist and philanthropist who generously supported a diversity of organizations in New Orleans. Dorian contributed over a decade of service to the Newcomb Art Museum and served as its Advisory Board Chair from 2014 to 2018. Read more about his incredible life here.
Newsletter 6.11.2025
Check out our Summer 2025 newsletter here! This week features an artist interview. A part of developing arts writing initiatives at the museum, “From the Studio” foregrounds the work of artists in their studios. These short pieces offer a glimpse into their practice in the hope of expanding how we look at and think about art. In the inaugural issue of “From the Studio,” Sherae Rimpsey, Andrew W. Mellon Arts Writer and Editor at the Newcomb Art Museum, explores the artwork of painter Aaron Collier.
