Traditional art critics usually focus on a painting's artistic expressions, such as lines, colors, and composition. This book, Ways of Seeing, however, directs our attention to something else, such as the artwork's historical background, the artist's purpose, and the hidden intentions behind different ways of interpretation. The book tells us the secrets behind images and gives us a whole new perspective to appreciate artworks.
The author, John Berger, was an influential English art critic, novelist and painter of the contemporary world. He held many solo exhibitions and wrote multiple monographs on art as well as novels. His novel G. won the 1972 Booker Prize and the James Tait Black Memorial Prize. In the same year, the BBC broadcast his documentary series Ways of Seeing. This book, which holds the same name, was published as a companion text to the series. In 2011, The Guardian listed Ways of Seeing among the 100 best nonfiction books of all time.
