The Fence - Boston, Brooklyn and Atlanta, New York, Brooklyn, 05/02/2014 - 10/31/2014
ABOUT
Printed on photographic mesh, THE FENCE is a growing photographic installation which aims to expand to a new city each year. During its original 10 week run in the summer of 2012, the exhibition drew over 1 million visitors to view the 1000ft photo installation hanging along a walking path in Brooklyn Bridge Park. For its third year, in addition to its return to the Brooklyn Bridge Park Greenway, and the Rose F. Kennedy Greenway in Boston, THE FENCE continues its expansion, and will include a third location on the Atlanta BeltLine, in cooperation with our newest partners – Atlanta Celebrates Photography.
THE FENCE is a collaboration between United Photo Industries, Photo District News (PDN), Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Flash Forward Festival, and Atlanta Celebrates Photography (ACP) as they join forces to curate and produce this unique site-specific exhibition aimed at fostering conversations, and exploring new thematic directions in photography.
Armed with the task of curating such a large, public exhibition, we assemble a jury of more than 30 highly-respected photography professionals from around the world, who offer their time, energy and years of experience to curate this monumental outdoor exhibition – presenting the work of 40 talented photographers from around the world to a combined audience of over 1.5 million visitors each summer.
Photographers of all levels are invited to submit their best image series that capture the essence of “community” and fit into one or more of the competition categories: HOME, STREETS, PEOPLE, CREATURES, PLAY.
