  1. A woman stands before a blue screen in a museum.
    The image asks who is allowed to look, and how meaning is shaped by the place that frames the act of seeing.

  6. “Seeing comes before words”*…

    Five years ago, (R)D featured John Berger’s award-winning– and more to the point, hugely-influential– television series Ways of Seeing (in some ways a response to Kenneth Clark’s Civilisation series). The broadcast was followed by an adaptation of Berger’s scripts that became a book of the same name.

    Now that hugely influential work is available in a gorgeous web version…

    Based on the 1972 BBC series and comprised of 7 essays, 3 of which are entirely pictoral, Ways of Seeing is a seminal work which examines how we view art…

    A beautiful new way to enjoy (and learn from) a classic: “Ways of Seeing

    * John Berger (the first line of Ways of Seeing)

    As we ponder perspective, we might pause to celebrate the induction, on this date in 2005, into the the National Toy Hall of Fame of a plaything that invites constant creativity– the cardboard box.

  11. "Sometimes I say to myself that the storyteller is Death's secretary"

    Most well-known for his excellent "Ways of Seeing" TV series and books—amongst other works—John Berger also wrote and presented 'About Time'.

    It's a collection of meditations on time, death, story telling, the nature of being, the Present and Berger's humanism, as always, shines through.

  17. [Another side note related to a previous post] I remember seeing the full moon above Tokyo for the first time. The hue and light of the moon seemed softer to the one I'm used to. So maybe when I look at a soft-looking moon in a Japanese artwork, it's actually an accurate representation of what the viewer is experiencing, which I hadn't known before. [1/2] #art #WaysOfSeeing

  18. [Side note related to previous post] Another thing I find really curious is how artists convey the world through their art in a way that's related to the way they perceive it. I remember seeing a photograph taken by an artist that usually drew humans with thin, long limbs. The photograph showed the shadow of a person at dusk, and the projection on the ground had elongated, thin limbs, similar to those of his drawings. #art #WaysOfSeeing
