Blind Field is an exhibition that takes up blindness as a critical category, a metaphor for the way in which the obstruction of perception can illuminate alternate modes of knowledge and experience.

It focuses on a young generation of artists working in Brazil who offer a critical perspective on processes of transition within contemporary society, be it from the public space of the street to the virtual zone of the computer screen, or the scale of local communities to the structure of large-scale political action.

This 152-page hardcover, fully illustrated catalogue includes essays by exhibition curators Tumelo Mosaka and Irene V. Small, as well as artists' interviews and artists' biographies.
