The exhibition The Art Beyond the Visible opens the door to two distinct worlds. In the first part, we aim to make existing art accessible to people with visual impairments, who often cannot experience it fully because touching of the artworks is not allowed. A journey through examples of good practices from Slovenia and abroad takes us through the history of art, leading to the second part of the exhibition. Here, visitors will watch a video that introduces the purpose of our experiment: fostering a dialogue between artists, their works, and visitors. The second part of the exhibition reveals a new world, where artists have created tactile works specifically designed to be touched and experienced.
