The Focused Eye: Our Unique Views is an outdoor photography exhibition located at Fan Pier on
the Public Green in Boston’s bustling Seaport District. Eighty-eight images are
displayed on a large-scale banner, 5-feet high and 250-feet long, showcasing the
work of the Boston Camera Club, the second-oldest camera club in the country. Expertly
sequenced by curator Emily Belz, each image speaks to the next by subject, color,
composition or use of light to form a bridge, creating a compelling visual
experience in the public realm. The photo banner exhibition will run from the
end of May through November 2021.

These Boston-area groups were invited
to submit creative works in response to the exhibition images. Their members
contributed poetry, prose, photographs, video, audio and visual artwork
which adds creative impact beyond just the photographs themselves. Through this interactive component of public art,
bridges have been built between individuals and communities
who might not otherwise connect with each other or the Boston Camera Club.
