Judy Sherrod Interviews Josephine forSXSE Photo Magazine

November 14, 2015

Now, let me tell you about the Josephine Sacabo known to those of us photo-people who hang out in New Orleans a lot. She is a warm and gracious hostess. Her studio is a place for art thinking and practice. Her kitchen table is a place for profound and often irreverent conversations. And her generosity toward and support of the arts in New Orleans knows no bounds.

Rfotofolio Interviews Josephine Sacabo

January 13, 2015

Q: WHAT IN YOUR EYES MAKES A GREAT PHOTOGRAPH? A GREAT WORK OF ART?

A: In my eyes a great work of art has to come from an authentic place in the artist; an intense need to express whatever it is and then the discipline and hard work of giving it its most perfect form.

Josephine Sacabo and Eric Bookhardt discuss Inventing Reality on The Reading Life

December 24, 2013

“So many of these photographers, including Josephine, originally came from somewhere else. And I think there’s something about New Orleans, as a city of profound mystery, that attracts its own – attracts people that are attuned to the mysteries of the city, that are really the mysteries of the world and the universe … So I think that all of them in a way are doing their version of what it is about this city and this region that inspires them to create.”

Listen to the interview: Susan Larson, The Reading Life (WWNO), December 24, 2013

Gambit Weekly Reviews Beyond Thought

October 2, 2013

For photographer Josephine Sacabo, the visions conjured by her favorite writers inspire photographs that resemble fragments of a fantastical parallel universe. Her new series was inspired by Brazilian author Clarice Lispector, who once asked: “And as for music, after it’s played, where does it go?” Sacabo’s images provide no literal answers but surround us with visionary echoes – like elusive dreams that create their own realities.

Nocturnes Reviewed in The Brooklyn Rail

February 2, 2013

Sacabo’s images are symbolic as well, sometimes playing upon themes of allegory. Her work appeals to sensory experience and emotion over objectivity and intellect, which is why the photogravures in Nocturnes work so well with Wonk’s poems: nothing is literal, obvious, or rational. There is no forced cohesion of the works; they simply resonate with each other …. For Sacabo, such correspondences have always been present.

“Josephine Sacabo’s fantastical photography studio holds playful pieces that inspire her.” The Times Picayune

October 29, 2011

Everywhere, everywhere, dream-like black-and-white photographs, many with Spanish titles, stop you in your tracks.

And this is where somebody works?

“Life and Art, Side by Side in the French Quarter.” The New York Times

September 28, 2011

In Ms. Schwartz’s meticulous, mischievous pieces … and in Ms. Sacabo’s ghostly, smoky female figures, you can see the collision of magic realism, allegory and surrealism. It’s a territory of fallen angels, omnivorous ancestors and all manner of fantastic creatures.
