The Vision To Depict It Their Way

“’The exhibition is framed to be about limits and what can be done within them,’ said Lawrence Rinder, the director of the Berkeley Art Museum, who was a juror for ‘Insights’ this year. That thematic framing, he added, locates the show’s blind artists very much in the tradition of artists in general. ‘We all have limits of perception, and all artists work within that envelope.’”

Chris Colin writes about the 20th annual exhibition of art by legally blind artists in the New York Times. Don’t miss the gorgeous slideshow.
