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.

Working at the intersection of cinema, photography, and installation, Clément Cogitore examines ritual, memory, and notions of the sacred. This film pairs a dramatic Baroque soundtrack with a style of dance born in Los Angeles in the early 1990s known as K.R.U.M.P.

Clément Cogitore: Les Indes Galantes

Eva LeWitt approaches her sculptures and installations with a spirit of experimentation, curiosity, and play. Her exhibition in The Joslyn’s Riley CAP Gallery will transform ceilings, corners, floors, and walls to upend visitors’ expectations of the space.

Hanging installations feature vertical tubes in various colors, including green, black, pink, brown, and blue, ending in pointed, bead-like tips. The artwork is displayed in a bright gallery with a polished floor.
