The art gallery respond

On friday the 20/03/09 me and Anthony visit the art gallery of NSW. We had a interview with the lady that is organising the access program. this is the respond that we got from the visit A new exhibition will be open on the 5th of April at 11am which will be for the visual impaired people. This exhibition includes sound. The exhibition for visually impaired people has special system of working. Normally they choose five artworks which they think are interesting and describe them. They also bring different materials that depend on the work they are showing example: marble, textures so they can touch, feel and smell. The NSW Gallery also organises touch tours where they can touch certain scultures in the museum. They normally choose materials like bronze so they have a good visualization about the artwork.Lots of mainsteam schools visit the gallery and many times happens to have a blind student with them so the gallery organise an assistant to join the student. Blind people are very interested in art and they love experiencing this exhibitions. The first exhibition in Sydney for blind people was a year ago.
