"Flickr: You Got Eyes" A new group run by the MET
The Metropolitan Museum of Art wants to inspire you to tell a story and speak from the heart, as Robert Frank did with The Americans, his masterpiece of street photography. So the Met is hosting this group pool, You Got Eyes, in conjunction with Looking In: Robert Frank's The Americans, an exhibition celebrating the 50th anniversary of the publication of The Americans. The exhibition runs from September 22, 2009, through January 3, 2010. For more information, including sponsorship credits, see the exhibition preview on the Met's website. 1. What is Your Story? How do you feel about the times we live in today? What is it about your world that weighs on you? What puts you at ease? Visit a city, park, museum, or any place you feel passionate about and document your journey with your camera. Choose a series of 5 to 10 photographs and upload them to this pool. Your submissions must be current: no photography taken before September 1, 2009, please.
