August 2022 fand eine Führung durch die Ausstellung statt, die neben Fragen zur Entstehung der Werke und der Motivation dahinter auch die bisher beobachteten Reaktionen der BesucherInnen beleuchtete. Besonders überrascht waren manche Besucher von einem scheinbar zweitrangigen Thema: Während Etiketten neben Fotografien und Ausstellungsführern meist nur praktische und organisatorische Elemente einer Ausstellung sind, die nicht im Mittelpunkt stehen, handelt es sich hier um eigenständige, raumgreifende Arbeiten. Dazu gehören zum Beispiel Braille-Punkte in farbigen Flächen abstrakter Bilder, die die Farben in Blindenschrift wiedergeben, oder Braille-Schrift in Holzrahmen, die ein flächig gemaltes Werk beschreiben, aber auch der Belichtungsleitfaden, der dem Betrachter verdeutlicht, was Orientierungslauf bedeutet wenn Sie einen solchen Ort nicht sehen können und trotzdem besuchen möchten....

Dans la fonction publique fédérale, dans toutes les universités, dans toutes les grandes entreprises, nous recrutons désormais des spécialistes de l’EDI, c’est-à-dire « égalité, diversité et inclusion »....
