ABOUT CHRISTOPHER MARTIN GALLERY

Celebrated painter and gallerist Christopher Martin is no stranger to New Orleans. Buoyed by a bevy of high-profile local collectors, in 2019, the Aspen-based creative, renowned for his expressive and organic abstract paintings, unveiled a monumental outdoor piece as well as two 8-foot by 8-foot indoor pieces in Wells Fargo Plaza, one of Texas’ tallest office towers. Christopher Martin opened his New Orleans gallery, a 2,000-square-foot showroom along Upper Kirby District’s acclaimed Gallery Row (2625 Colquitt Street) in early 2022.  Christopher Martin Gallery outposts in New Orleans, the Dallas Design District, downtown Aspen and Vail Village, CO, serve as an ongoing showcase of Martin’s signature work along with a noteworthy stable of contemporary artists.

The Whale Tail Project started in 2019 when artist Johans Lamic bought his first Porsche an 83’ 3,2 Carrera Targa. The idea was to restore and customize the vehicle. When the process started, the car was disassembled and among all these parts, Johans noticed the spoiler and thought the beautiful object would fit perfectly in his living room as a piece of art. He decided to develop the idea and create an object that would represent the quintessence of the Porsche brand, history, and technology. The idea behind the Whale Tail Project is to revive the emotions, nostalgia, and the glorious racing past of the Porsche brand by displaying on our stylish revisited spoiler’s retro and modern interpretations of racing liveries.

Our Testimonials

Custom Engagement Rings in New Orleans

K B D Kelly

“Valobra was an unexpected, excellent surprise! I am new to New Orleans and had randomly selected another jeweler in the Midtown/Montrose area to get a sterling silver ring sized. The jeweler said he couldn’t size the ring and couldn’t give a recommendation for someone who could. Later that day, I passed Valobra while running other errands in the neighborhood and decided to stop in to ask if they could do it. The service was thorough and superb. I received customer service from 3 different staff members; all were sweet, helpful, professional, and fun! One of the staff members even has her perfect, beautiful dog there and she greets customers at the door. These guys are THE full-service jeweler to see; it is worth giving them your business, no matter what part of this enormous city you live in.”
