Based on the BBC television series, John Berger's "Ways of Seeing" is a unique look at how we perceive art. It was published as part of the Penguin on Design series in Penguin Modern Classics and explores the idea that seeing comes before words. The book begins with the quote, "Seeing comes before words. The child looks and recognizes before it can speak." This sets the tone for the rest of the book, which argues that our understanding of art is heavily influenced by the way we see it. Berger suggests that we need to be more critical in our viewing of art and not just accept what we are told about it. He also emphasizes the importance of context when looking at art, as it can greatly affect our interpretation of a piece. Overall, "Ways of Seeing" is an insightful look into how we perceive art and encourages readers to be more critical in their viewing.
