Films, talks & events

Sidney Poitier was a pioneer. In 1963, he was the first African American male to win the Oscar for Best Actor for Lilies of the Field. Poitier was lauded for his style, intelligence and classical technique. He was graceful, self-aware and had immense presence on screen.

They were good friends, Oscar winners and shining examples for young, African American actors; this summer at Eye: films with Sidney Poitier and films with Denzel Washington.

Sidney Poitier & Denzel Washington

Eye Art & Film Prize

What is notable about the work of the three winning artists is their committed engagement with the world and the way they effortlessly cross the boundaries between cinema, documentary and visual art.

Eye presents the work of the three recent winners of the Eye Art & Film Prize, who effortlessly cross the boundaries between cinema, documentary, and visual arts.
