John Berger’s About Looking influenced a whole generation of critics, artists and photographers. Berger looks at the art of the past through the lens of his own time, writes about the long history of the bond between humans and animals, responds to Susan Sontag’s On Photography, and returns to the work of well-known artists to find in it not only an image but ideology, loss and memory.

Read the book, note down your thoughts and observations, prepare questions and come to the meeting.
