Creative Book Club: “Ways of Seeing” by John Berger

Book: “Ways of Seeing” by John Berger
Facilitator: Marshall Carolus
Meeting Date: Saturday, October 11, 10am-12pm
(Drop-in, set a reminder in Eventbrite)

Join us on October 11 at 10am to discuss John Berger’s “Ways of Seeing”. It’s an adaptation of a 4-part series he did for the BBC. As described by Michael Messmer, “Berger challenges the notion that Western art is solely the product of individual geniuses by exploring the social and economic contexts in which art is produced and consumed. The book comprises seven essays, some of which combine text and images, presenting a non-linear format that invites readers to engage critically with visual culture.”

The Creative Book Club meets on select Saturday mornings at Del Ray Artisans gallery to discuss readings by a variety of authors. The club is open to all who are interested in keeping their creative muse flowing and connecting with other creative people. This is a free event; donations are appreciated. Del Ray Artisans is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit arts organization. Future book selections will be announced on this website and in the Weekly eNews email in advance.
