“I like a picture to dance and I think of painting in mystical terms. I’m listening for the inspirational and I express it as a visual lyric. Life is a pulsating, vibrational riot. I snip cuts of this and serve it up.” — James Michalopoulos

From the award-winning team and executive producers of Blue: The Life and Art of George Rodrigue, George Dunbar: Mining the Surfaces, A Tribute to Toussaint, Irma Thomas: The Soul Queen of New Orleans, and Fats Domino: Walking Back to New Orleans comes the latest film by WLAE-TV and 6th Street Studios: Michalopoulos: The Art of Celebration.

No artist has captured the heartbeat and spirit of New Orleans like James Michalopoulos. This film follows him to never-before-seen locations where he creates his masterpieces: from an eccentric chateau in Burgundy to his cattywampus New Orleans home and rambling funeral home turned fantastical studio pulsating with the beat of Frenchman Street.
