Art & Italian Sign

If you want to understand art through Italian sign language, there's a dictionary that can help. The Dictionary of Contemporary Art in Italian Sign Language was edited by the Education Department of the Castello di Rivoli Museum of Contemporary Art and the Turin Institute of the Deaf. It contains 80 new signs to guide the deaf through the contemporary art world. Each sign is explained with a written summary and illustrative work of art. There's more information here.
