The Photographer of the Blind Man
Blind photography: the very concept sounds odd. But a striking exhibition of photographs in California, argues that it stems from the core of contemporary art. The show "Sight Unseen", at the California Museum of Photography until Aug. 29, features everything: underwater scenes, portraits, landscapes, abstracts, and everything else you might expect from a "sighted" photographer.
How do the blind take their photographs? Some rely on assistants to set up and then describe the shots, and others just point and shoot in the right place. "Just like any good artists," says McCulloh, "they have their unique ways of operating."
One participating photographer is Pete Eckert, an artist with multiple degrees in design and sculpture who only turned to photography after losing his vision in the mid-1950s. He opens the shutter on his camera and then uses flashlights, lasers, lights, and candles to paint his scene on film. Kurt Weston’s dark and depressing images are also a star of the show. A former fashion photographer in Chicago, Weston lost his vision due to AIDS in 1996, and focuses on images of decay and disability.
What do gallery-goers say? "I was very impressed by it. The technique and experience was amazingly diverse," says John Hesketh, a printmaker in Anaheim. "You never have a sense of feeling sorry for these people because they’ve worked very hard to prove their value."
Beyond the praise, however, the exhibition also makes a great example for disabled people everywhere. That point was explained in early May during a panel discussion on the TV show. At the very end of the talk, one attendee summed it up: " This exhibition is extraordinary and revolutionary for many reasons. I think that by being an artist with a disability, you are continuing the work of those people who fought for basic civil rights to gain access and to have a voice. In that way, it’s so wonderful, that your photographs say it all. "
What’s the significance of the exhibition?
选项
A、The blind photographers have a place to show their works to the public.
B、The public have a chance to see the world from the angle of blind people.
C、The California Museum of Photography receives praises for holding the show.
D、The exhibition can be very encouraging and inspiring to the blind in the world.
答案
D
解析
推理判断题。由题干中的significance定位到最后一段。本段第一句说:然而,这次展览不仅仅得到了赞扬,还为世界各地的残疾人士设立了好的榜样。因此,展览的重要意义在于使全世界的盲人看到了盲人不应该受身体的局限。所以[D]“展览对全世界的盲人都有鼓舞作用”为正确答案。文章没有提到[A]“盲人摄影师们总算有地方把作品对公众展出了”和[B]“公众可以通过作品看到盲人眼中的世界”,故排除;虽然展览获得了赞扬,但这份赞扬不一定就是给举办展览的博物馆,可能也是针对作品的赞扬,而且,由本段第一句话也可以推断,得到赞扬不是举办这次展览的重要意义。因此排除[C]。
