Spooner-Thayer Exhibits Work Of Blind Children
A rare and unusual exhibit of art work is now on display on the ground floor of Spooner-Thayer museum. The work is done by three groups of children, all under the age of adolescence, who have been divided into three groups: Those with normal vision; those with 10 to 20 per cent vision; and those congenitally blind or born blind
The exhibit is of comparative nature, contrasting the work of each of the three groups on the same subject. Water colors have been painted by the weak-sighted and normal children, while the congenitally blind have done their work in the field of clay modeling.
Observation Through Touch
Character of the water colors done by the weak-sighted children shows influence of observation through touch as compared to visual observation by children with normal vision.
Those with weak sight often have to do their work with their eyes only $ \% $ of an inch from their paintings and thus are not able to get a simultaneous impression of the picture. They must build up their representations out of partial impressions, making it difficult to obtain continuity by this method.
Clay modelings, done by students with normal vision and students born completely blind, are presented in the exhibits beside photographs of the actual work, which was done in Germany. All impressions received by the blind students were made by touch and use of the imagination, since they had never seen a model of their work. Work on Face of Man
The subject on which they worked was the face of man expressing pain. The children were very exact in placing each distinct part in the proper place, including the teeth and tongue which were hidden by a closed mouth when the head was

finished. Yet the most striking features of the photographs are the great disproportions in size. The students were able to tell the shape of objects but were unable to judge their size in proportion to other objects.
Groups are easily distinguished in the exhibit, Dr. Viktor Lowenfield of Hampton Institute, Hampton, Va. owns the exhibit and conducted the work of preparing it, after a great many years of experimental work with these children.
Wrote Book
Doctor Lowenfeld has written a book entitled, "Nature of Creative Activity" in which he makes comparisons between these children and primitive man.
The exhibit is sponsored here by the psychology department, department of architecture, and the department of design. It is open to the public without charge, and will be here until early April.
The great art to learn much is to undertake a little at a time.
