Art of Seeing

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the act of attentive reading, the essays delve into the works of often-overlooked poets and visual artists, including David Jones and Welsh women poets. Hooker emphasizes the significance of localism and clarity in art, drawing connections between landscape and the creative vision of these artists. His critique not only illuminates their contributions but also reflects on his own poetic journey, creating a blend of aesthetic analysis and personal narrative. The overarching goal is to awaken a deeper awareness of artistic expression beyond mainstream trends.
