Synopsis

A groundbreaking volume on the role of the non-visual in art and the emerging field of blindness arts.

In what ways can visual art be enjoyed beyond sight? Bringing together leading international scholars and artists in the emerging field of "blindness arts"--including blind and partially blind artists, curators, advocates for inclusive practices and models of audio description, cognitive psychologists, and theorists of installation, performance, and sound art--Beyond the Visual seeks to broaden the discussion of multisensory ways of beholding contemporary art, with a particular emphasis on modes that transcend a dependency upon sight. Through diverse examples of multisensory engagement, it contributes to ongoing conversations around accessibility and blindness in art while also challenging and expanding our understanding of how art is experienced.
