The Blind Man was an art and Dada journal published by the New York Dadaists in 1917, being edited by Marcel Duchamp, Beatrice Wood and Henri-Pierre Roché.

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.
