The Revolving Museum's Tunnel Vision project is a public art series addressing personal, social and political issues that arise when an arts community is threatened by displacement. The Fort Point is home to The Revolving Museum and is the largest arts community in New England with over 500 artists living and working in the area ­ it is also currently a construction site for the "Big Dig". Tunnel Vision is initiating a spirited artistic response in hopes of preserving and broadening Fort Point's cultural future. This project is being funded in part by the LEF Foundation and the Cloud Foundation.

Public Art Series October 1 - December 31, 2000

Tunnel Vision was inaugurated on the weekend of October 21st & 22nd, during the 21st annual Fort Point Arts Community Open Studios. Thousands of spectators viewed 22 7' x 8' banners and a mural made of found balls hung on the walls of a Big Dig construction site. Through out the weekend visitors interacted with 6 Dig Buggies, the RISD Wheels of Wonder Bus and the Jamaica Plain Art Cars and marveled at the Big Head.
