In celebration of fifty years since John Berger’s “Ways Of Seeing” was broadcast in January 1972, I welcome you writers and artworkers to join me in a week long look at what he had to say, and how we might ekphrastically comment on the artworks he looked at, particularly painting and photography. It would be ideal if you could read the book beforehand, but not necessary. The challenge will run from January 9th-15th, and use the artworks he used as a prompt for each day. The first day features Magritte’s “The Key Of Dreams”. See below.
