Ocularcentrism is the privileging of vision over the other senses. It can be seen in the art of Odilon Redon.
Narratives such as Story of the Eye by Georges Bataille and Un chien Andalou profess anti-ocularism. See "The Disenchantment of the Eye: Surrealism and the Crisis of Ocularcentrism" by Martin Jay.
