The Blind Man was an art and Dada journal published by the New York Dadaists in 1917.
Henri-Pierre Roche, Beatrice Wood, and Mina Loy contributed to the first, Independents' Number issue; Walter Arensberg (Axiom, Theorem, poems), Gabrielle Buffet-Picabia (Marie Laurencin, essay), Robert Carlton (Bob) Brown (poems), Frank Crowninshield (letter), Charles Demuth (For Richard Mutt, poem), Marcel Duchamp, Charles Duncan (poem), an essay about Louis Michael Eilshemius, Mina Loy (prose), Louise Norton (essay), Francis Picabia (Medusa, poem), Joseph Stella (Coney Island, picture), Frances Simpson Stevens (1894-1976) (poem), Alfred Stieglitz (Fountain by R. Mutt, photography; letter) and Clara Tice (drawing) to the second. The magazine only saw two editions to publication.
Volume 2 is best known for the group's reaction to the rejection of Duchamp's Fountain to a 1917 unjuried art show.

But we've lost our way
No one ever stops to hear what
You've got to say
I'm locked inside of you
Let me out
Trapped in the vision of
What there about
Looking for a reason
That will never be
I am not the person, that you think you see
There's something wrong here
There's no doubt
You're like a blind man
Can't see our
If he can't hear, he must feel
If he can't feel, he must see
If he can't hear, he must feel
And if he can't see you
Feel the need in me
Feel the need in me
Feel the need in me
Walking through a shallow empty word of doubt
I'm in the picture now
But you want me out
There's something strong here
You don't see
You've gone too far now
So empty
If he can't hear, he must feel
If he can't feel, he must see
If he can't hear, he must feel

Feel the need in me
If he can't hear, he must feel
If he can't feel, he must see
If he can't hear, he must feel
And if he can't see you
Feel the need in me
Feel the need in me
Feel the need in me
If he can't hear, he must feel
If he can't feel, he must see
If he can't hear, he must feel
And if he can't see you
Feel the need in me
