Through Don’s Lens

The Nature Photography of Don Schwartz

Exhibition runs May 5 to September 30

Don Schwartz, Nature Photographer
I’ve been exploring photography for nearly two decades. It started simply: taking pictures on vacation. As avid cruise-goers, my wife and I were regularly traveling to exotic locations, so, naturally, I began snapping photos of the beautiful landscapes around me. Then, in March 2020, COVID hit, and my hobby grew into a passion. I spent my days at Arthur R. Marshall Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge, Green Cay National Wildlife Refuge, and Wakodahatchee Wetlands, observing wildlife and capturing Florida’s natural beauty on my Canon point-and-shoot camera. I found great pleasure in watching for baby alligators, bobcats, owlets, and raccoons. From then on, my photography has taken me to so many wonderful and unexpected places; I proudly became a member of the Audubon Everglades Photography Group, and I have collaborated with my wife in five Palm Beach County art exhibitions over the past several years. It has been a privilege and a pleasure to explore art together and share it with others.

Exhibition: Glasstress Boca Raton 2025
Glasstress Boca Raton 2025 is the third iteration of the popular series of exhibitions at the Boca Raton Museum of Art. Glasstress is a project in Murano, Italy, at the Berengo Studio that brings major international artists, many of whom have never worked in glass, to Venice to collaborate with its glass masters. These experts are challenged to rise to the technical challenges that artists at the forefront of contemporary art present and expand beyond their centuries-old techniques. The project also aims to increase the prestige of glass as fine art and to bring Murano's ancient traditions into the contemporary world. The result is innovative artworks that are dramatic. Glasstress Boca Raton 2025 includes over twenty works by globally celebrated artists.

Film: Dawn of Impressionism: Paris, 1874
Directed by Ali Ray 2024, 90 min
The Impressionists are now celebrated as one of the most beloved groups in art history, with millions visiting their masterpieces every year. But at their inception they were dismissed as rebellious outsiders and struggled to make ends meet. Everything changed in 1874 when, seeking independence from the traditional art establishment, the Impressionists held their own exhibition outside official channels, breaking conventions and forever transforming the art world.

What led to this revolutionary exhibition 150 years ago? Who were the bold and unconventional figures who wielded their brushes to challenge artistic norms? Inspired by the spectacular exhibition at the Musée d’Orsay, this film revisits the extraordinary story of defiance and innovation. It brings the dawn of Impressionism to life through the words of those who were there—the artists, the critics, and the people of Paris in 1874—revealing the passion and upheaval that ignited a movement.
