Visibility suspended. An exhibition for the visually privileged: An analysis of the Invisible Exhibition

Abstracts

EN

The contemporary model of culture is founded on two principal shifts: the pictorial one and that towards everyday life. The former has brought the development of visual culture and visual sociology in science, while the latter an interest in the life of regular people and the return to sociology of everyday life. The model of culture based on the visual and the visible apotheosises sight as a dominant sense in the building of social interactions. It naturally privileges those who can freely participate in cultural life. However, it excludes and, to a certain extent, limits the activities and the cultural participation of people with visual impairments. The aim of this article is to present the case of the Invisible Exhibition where people with regular vision are included in multisensory culture based on the tactile, auditory, and olfactory perception. The exhibition allows the privileged participants of visual culture to learn about multisensory culture built on other cognitive foundations. The Invisible Exhibition also allows people with visual impairments to join the dominant model of culture by expanding beyond their own boundaries and actions based on other principles. The case of the Invisible Exhibition is analysed with regards to the concept of history and counter-history, i.e. the narratives of the privileged and underprivileged in the cultural system by Ewa Domańska, as well as own research conducted as part of social work courses at the Institute of Sociology of the Jagiellonian University in Kraków.
