About the artist

Jamar Duval Pierre

From his roots as a New Orleans graffiti artist, to his elite technique in painting original works, J. Pierre also channels his talent into live performance paintings, community murals and commissioned works. There’s no genre, word, or descriptor that can quite delineate his style. It simply has and attracts joy to it, further invoking an emotional response from appreciators and his subjects alike.

With more than twenty years of professional visual art experience, Pierre has curated fine art exhibits both stateside and internationally. He is featured in the Library of Congress for the NOLA Foundation’s historic choice of Pierre to create the city’s official Tricentennial Celebration artwork. Pierre has also been recognized by both the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Institute and the National Public Radio broadcasting group for his contributions to fine art.
