Tran, T. Kim-Trang: The Blindness Series The Blindness Series consists of eight short videos that investigate blindness and metaphors. Topics of individual tapes include cosmetic surgery of the eyelids, vision and sexuality, video surveillance, hysterical blindness, alexia or word-blindness, and physical blindness. The series examines instrumental vision while offering a different kind of visuality, a haptic visuality. Stylistically, Tran's critical approach to video art is essayistic, theoretical, and politically engaged. This 2-disc DVD box set also features contextualizing essays by Lucas Hilderbrand, Laura U. Marks, and Holly Willis, along with title descriptions, an artist biography and bibliography. total trt 2:20:25 Click here for a complete description of The Blindness Series and clips of each title.
