Blind date Sound & Vision in private

14/11/2008 – 7/12/2008

In contemporary art, sensuous experiences depend mostly on eyes and ears. But what remains if these precious senses refuse to work? Is it possible to translate art to people with a visual or auditory handicap? How different will their experience be? And what about the tactile sense in art?

Ten artists are prepared to take this interesting challenge. They will invite the visitor to a blind date, an unforeseen or unheard confrontation with the ‘other’. With widely divergent works they are willing to risk a leap in the dark, taking the public into the margin of art.

With: Arno Roncada, Ben Kruisdijk, Conny Kuilboer, Frederik De Wilde, Weyers & Borms, Kristin Rogghe, Michael Bonne, Nathalie Hunter, Pieter Geenen and Sara Bomans
