John Berger's "The Art of Seeing" is one of the most discussed and influential art books ever published. Based on the famous BBC film, it was first published following its premiere in 1972. That same year, the Sunday Times critic wrote: "Berger isn't just opening our eyes to how we see works of art; he's almost certain to change the viewer's perception of art itself."
Forty years later, it's safe to say: the prophecy has come true.
This is the first Russian-language translation of John Berger's classic work.
