Regular followers of this blog will know that my first post of every month is a "job from the past" so that I can show some of the really good work from years gone by.
This month's piece is particularly poignant, as yesterday the death of John Berger was announced. John Berger was an English art critic, novelist, painter and poet. His novel G. won the 1972 Booker Prize. He is most widely known for writing and presenting his 1972 BBC series on art criticism titled "Ways of Seeing" together with his accompanying book. It is probably fair to say that Ways of Seeing turned the traditional art world upside down.
