Excerpt: Mardi Gras (French pronunciation: English pronunciation: meaning "Fat Tuesday") is the annual Carnival celebration held in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States. The New Orleans Carnival season, with roots in preparing for the start of the Catholic season of Lent, starts after Twelfth Night, on Epiphany (January 6). It is a season of parades, balls (some of them masquerade balls), and king cake parties. It has traditionally been part of the winter social season; at one time "coming out" parties for young women at debutante balls were timed for this season. Celebrations are concentrated for about two weeks before and through Fat Tuesday (Mardi Gras in French), the day before Ash Wednesday. Usually there is one major parade each day (weather permitting); many days have several large parades. The largest and most elaborate parades take place the last five days of the season. In the final week of Carnival, many events large and small occur throughout New Orleans and surrounding communities. Neighboring communities also hold Carnival celebrations. The parades in New Orleans are organized by Carnival...

Book Synopsis Masking and Madness by : Kerri McCaffety
Download or read book Masking and Madness written by Kerri McCaffety and published by Vissi D'Arte Books. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dazzling masquerade of New Orleans' Mardi Gras opens its arms wide, dances, and flaunts, full colour and full page, in this book. McCaffety takes the art of portrait photography to North America's biggest costume party. A photographer with an anthropology degree who has recorded cultures all over the world, she returns to her hometown to capture the spirit of New Orleans' masquerade with a sharp wit, fresh vision, and profound sensitivity. The celebration in the streets, with a backdrop of lace-iron balconies and old oaks, combines with stark portraits of costumed citizens photographed in a Royal Street courtyard-turned-studio on Fat Tuesday. Accompanying the parade of images, a wry introduction by Cynthia Reece McCaffety explains the history behind this tradition of costuming and indulgence that goes back thousands of years. Winner of the 2003 GOLD Benjamin Franklin Award from Publisher's Marketing Association, 'Masking and Madness: Mardi Gras In New Orleans' is the only book devoted to the costumes of Carnival, a luminous portrait of the celebration that defines America's most profanely spiritual city, by New Orleans' pre-eminent photographer. Over 170 photographs capture the stunning spectrum of Mardi Gras, New Orleans style.
