Definition

  • John Berger (1926–) is a British art critic, artist, and acclaimed novelist, best known among scholars of gender and media for the 1972 British television series and accompanying book he created, Ways of Seeing. In Ways of Seeing Berger argues that power relations, particularly related to gender, class, and capitalism, are visible in the history of western European art as well as in the advertising of his day.
