blind man

blindman

This large bronze statue in the garden at Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts is based on an illustration Beatrice created in 1917—“an insolent, high-stepping stick figure thumbing its nose at the world”—for the cover of the Dadaist magazine, The Blind Man. It was also used on the advertising poster for the Blindman’s Ball that same year. I haven’t been able to find the name of the sculptor; he or she is referred to in several places as “a different artist.”
