John Berger was born in London in 1926. He is well known for his novels and stories as well as for his works of nonfiction, including several volumes of art criticism. His first novel, A Painter of Our Time, was published in 1958, and since then his books have included the novel G., which won the Booker Prize in 1972. In 1962 he left Britain permanently, and he lives in a small village in the French Alps.
How do we see the world around us? The Penguin on Design series includes the works of creative thinkers whose writings on art, design and the media have changed our vision forever.
"Seeing comes before words. The child looks and recognizes before it can speak."
"But there is also another sense in which seeing comes before words. It is seeing which establishes our place in the surrounding world; we explain that world with words, but word can never undo the fact that we are surrounded by it. The relation between what we see and what we know is never settled."
John Berger's Ways of Seeing is one of the most stimulating and influential books on art in any language. First published in 1972, it was based on the BBC television series about which the (London) Sunday Times critic commented: "This is an eye-opener in more ways than one: by concentrating on how we look at paintings... he will almost certainly change the way you look at pictures." By now he has.

评分此书购于数年前。反复阅读。受益匪浅。书中内容围绕着一个焦点image。它不是我们原始肉眼所见的影像,而是人为的创作摹拟。观看先于语言。看把物和人拉入共谋的关系,所有的image反映的都是一个主题:人是怎么在看。在看的过程中。不可避免的过滤掉了一些东西。最后呈现在我们...
评分其实文章很短,一会儿就可以看完。象workshop的讲稿,用来引发思考。 很好。 回答了我一直以来的疑惑:为什么那些画是名作?看起来其实没啥意思,当然技巧是完善的,但,多么无聊的画啊! 这下放心了,正如作者所言,观看名画已经变成了因为有名而去看,并努力找出理由来说明它...

值得一读 摘文 "Glamour cannot exist without personal social envy being a common and widespread emotion."

评分这本书主要解析我们观看的方式,涉及艺术与政治、女性作为观看的对象、油画自身的矛盾以及广告与资本主义白日梦。书中对观看之道的独特分析,或许惹恼那些手握阐释权力的人。然而反对单一的阐释,消解文化垄断与专制的权威,正是本书诞生的那个时代一批知识分子所肩负的理想。
评分最后一章尤为精彩。
评分非常有名的小册子,读过中文版,无意间发现当当上居然有卖原版的。呵呵。。。急着再看john berger当年的这本的“名著”
