A Touching Sight was made when the exhibition was at Santa Maria della Scala Museum in Siena, Italy, and at the Glucksman Museum in Cork, Ireland. The exhibition developed from a collaboration between Atlante Servizi Culturali and the Albers Foundation, together with the Istituto dei Ciechi di Milano, and with the support of the three European museums presenting the exhibition.
