L'ART AU BOUT DES DOIGTS

An unusual exhibition is being held at the Médiathèque as part of the 3rd edition of the programme "Partageons nos différences: handicaps en bibliothèque" ("Sharing our differences: disabilities in libraries") run by the Bibliothèque départementale.

This tactile exhibition is designed for all audiences, young and old, sighted and visually impaired. It comprises 17 works: 12 relief or 3D reproductions of paintings and 5 sculptures. Visioguides offer an audio tour and a tour in French sign language with subtitles. Factsheets in easy-to-read and understand (FALC) explain the history of the works and artists.
