Sneering and infantile? That's a good one!

@johnzbarleycorn Do you actually have an intellectual response to Berger's work? Or are you only capable of ad hominem verbosity?

It's nice to see the National Gallery again, it remembers me that there are almost no English painters, apart from the portraitists. Da Vinci and Van Gogh seem to have made much more into one painting. I may have been distracted by the excessive amount of gold worshipping though.

John Berger's book and television series is seminal and not leftwing propaganda. He raises many important points like how famous works of art have become ordinary and everyday objects as they are replicated everywhere from postcards to mugs. Famously, he also pointed out that some paintings such as portraits shouldn't be so highly revered as it is just rich people of the past showing of how wealthy they were. But that is common sense, not propaganda. Read the book and you'll never see the art

@Fauxann The lines he refers to is the way that standard definition television is shown on an old Tube TV. ThIs is why if you ever took a photo or tried to video what was on an old tv screen you would see the black lines.

John Berger's Ways of Seeing is replete with ridiculous untruths and left-wing propaganda.
It is the most absurd and poisonous book I have read in years.
In it he applies fatuous theories from Levi Strauss and other left wing "thinkers" and sneers in the typically infantile, 70s, Dave Spart type of left wing manner that was in vogue at the time.
Pure garbage.

Great programme. Berger is the best kind of thinker, not scared of making bold statements, so even when you disagree with him you at least know what you are disagreeing with. He still writes books but we could use someone like him on TV these days, talking about this stuff. It's all so wishy-washy now.
