Infos

What does art tell us about ourselves? John Berger on the politics and consolations of creativity.

---

Paying homage to the writers and thinkers who influenced him, John Berger pushes at the limits of art writing, demonstrating beautifully how his artist's eye makes him a storyteller, rather than a critic. His expansive perspective takes in artistic movements and individual artists-from the Renaissance to the present that completes a tour through the history of art that will be an intellectual benchmark for many years to come.
