A Vision to the Future

Museum Lecture Series - John Bramblitt - A Vision to the Future: Facing Disabilities

Professional artist John Bramblitt began painting after losing his sight in 2001. He feels very fortunate that his painting has given him opportunities to work with various non-profits and groups supporting people with disabilities. His art tends to push at the boundaries of what we consider 'perception.' Bramblitt challenges people's perceptions in a hands-on way, for example, several thousand sighted children have participated in his workshops wearing blindfolds and painting as if they too were blind. Some of his painting techniques are being taught not only to visually impaired children,b ut also to art majors at universities in New York and Texas. Read more about John Bramblitt. >>
