Cole Pratt Gallery in New Orleans has added a new work by Susan Downing-White titled 'Memory of Summer' to its online New Arrivals selection. The gallery’s listing identifies the painting as a 2026 oil on panel, measuring 6 x 12 inches and priced at $2,500. The work appears alongside several other recent pieces by the artist and other represented artists on the gallery’s current new-works page.
The gallery’s posted material does not frame the listing as an exhibition announcement, but rather as part of a broader update to its inventory. On the same page, Downing-White is represented with three additional works: 'Cat Island, MS', 2026, an oil on linen measuring 36 x 38 inches and priced at $14,000; 'Pelican Island, LA (West of the Bird's Foot)', 2026, an oil on canvas measuring 30 x 48 inches and priced at $14,750; and 'Dog River Summer', 2026, an oil on panel measuring 10 x 20 inches and priced at $5,200.
The New Arrivals page also includes new works by David Knox and Mac Ball, underscoring that the update is a general gallery roundup rather than a focused solo presentation. Knox is listed with four archival pigment prints on aluminum: 'The Baptism (1/12)', 'The Hourglass (1/12)', 'The Resurrection' and 'The Stableman (1/12)', each dated 2026 and priced at $2,100. Mac Ball is shown with three 2026 oil paintings: 'On the Island', 'The Golden Years' and 'Pepper-field Drainage Ditch', with prices ranging from $3,200 to $3,400.
Downing-White’s titles suggest a recurring attention to coastal and riverine places in the Gulf South, including references to Cat Island, Pelican Island and Dog River. The source material, however, provides only the titles, media, dimensions and prices, and does not supply curatorial text or an artist statement explaining the works’ imagery or themes.
Cole Pratt Gallery’s website identifies its mailing address at 3800 Magazine Street in New Orleans, and the online listing is presented as part of the gallery’s standard sales and viewing platform, with purchase and inquiry options attached to each work. The page is dated by the site’s copyright line to 2026, and the artwork listing itself is marked as new on the gallery’s art page.
'Memory of Summer' is therefore documented as one of the newest works currently posted by the gallery, joining a small group of 2026 paintings by Downing-White in the same update.
