“whatever the fuck you want” by New Orleans Community Print Shop & Darkroom
Check out photos from the 2nd Saturday Opening Night Reception on Antenna’s blog TRANSMISSIONS
EXHIBITION DATES: Nov 8th-Dec 13th, 2025:::Whatever the Fuck You Want is a group exhibition featuring selected photographic works in diverse styles and mediums—ranging from digital to silver gelatin to historical processes. The artists represented span a wide spectrum of experience: from those showing and publishing for the first time to established photographers with solo museum exhibitions, works in major institutional collections, and multiple monographs to their names.
Though distinct in approach and perspective, the invited artists’ works converge to form a dynamic conversation. Together, they create a collective statement—one that is greater than the sum of its parts, a reflection on the expansive possibilities of photographic practice and creative freedom… the creative freedom to make Whatever the Fuck You Want.
The New Orleans Community Printshop & Darkroom (NOCPD) provides the greater New Orleans community with public access to affordable printmaking, darkroom and art-making equipment, training, and services. NOCPD helps independent artists & community members grow in their artistic practice through printmaking & educational opportunities for adults and youth regardless of ability to pay. The NOCPD is a volunteer-based collective that aims to have a structure that is highly transparent & non-hierarchical. We organize sharing responsibility, implementing programming, and events open to the public, shop maintenance, and for administrative tasks, such as website upkeep and grant-writing. We seek to create a supportive community for volunteers and members; we come together monthly to present the whole collective with different ideas and updates, to make group decisions, and to welcome new or prospective members.
