Presented in the Focus Gallery, Seven Art Movements offers a multi-sensory exploration of some of the world’s most famous works of art. The installation represents seven key artistic movements: the Renaissance, the Baroque, Neoclassicism, Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Art Nouveau, and Expressionism. Custom kinesthetic displays with tactile panels and touch-activated audio make visual knowledge accessible for blind and visually impaired communities and create an immersive experience for all visitors.
This installation was developed by Tactile Images in association with the Nebraska Commission for the Blind and Visually Impaired, Getty Images, the National Federation of the Blind, and the Alliance for Inclusive Design and Experiences (AIDE).

A multi-sensory exploration of some of the world’s most famous works of art, this special installation invites all visitors to move beyond visual appreciation and to engage with subject matter, style, and technique through touch and sound. Tactile Images make visual knowledge accessible for blind and visually impaired communities.

Three individuals with visual impairments explore a tactile art display with their hands. The display features textured elements for tactile interaction, and each person holds a white cane.
