ABOUT THE 2024 ANTIQUES FORUMAmidst constantly evolving trends and artistic innovations, one thing remains the same: the past is never gone. People of the Gulf South have always found ways to reuse and adapt older objects to fit new purposes. From columned Greek Revival mansions to clothing, each new generation has recycled and revised historic aesthetics to suit its own time. Museums and memory institutions have also influenced the maintaining and repurposing of historic objects.
The 2024 New Orleans Antiques Forum will discuss the long lives of objects in historic practices and current concepts. Sessions will address the reasons objects are given second lives—cultural heritage, economic necessity, sustainability—as well as the skills required for adaptive reuse—craft techniques and creative repair methods. The endurance of antiques and heirlooms is a testament to the Gulf South’s rich heritage of skillful creativity.
