用大腦觀察: 藝術家和視覺障礙 – 藝術與健康系列

This iteration of the Art & Health Series delves into how artists like Claude Monet and Georgia O’Keeffe responded to a loss of sight, as well as offers a firsthand testimony from a contemporary artist, Stephen Lapthisophon, about how visual impairment affects his work.

An Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology also describes the medical issues faced by artists with eye diseases and explains how multi-sensory encounters with art can enrich the experiences of both sighted and non-sighted learners.
