Great-ish Hits
Rick Olivier
Now-March 13, 2022
On September 17, 2020, the New Orleans Jazz Museum celebrated the debut of an exhibit of Rick Olivier’s music photographs entitled Great-ish Hits. The exhibition features iconic photographs of local legends including, Aaron and Art Neville, Champion Jack Depree, Irma Thomas, and many others, plus a selection of more obscure documentary images seldom seen outside of Olivier’s Mid-City studio. Olivier has photographed musicians and music culture since 1975 for hundreds of local and national clients. The exhibit’s soundtrack, organized by the Jazz Museum’s Music Curator David Kunian, contains examples of the artists pictured.
