В погоне за искусством

The new book of the English art historian and art critic Martin Heyford (born 1952), the author of collections of interviews with David Hokni and Lucien Freud, research on British painting of the 1960-1980s, Van Gogh and Michelangelo, represents an exciting art history of grass: in it Stories about peculiar pilgrimages to the shrines of classical and contemporary art are collected. Proving the thesis that any artistic work, and the great one, especially, can be fully perceived and felt only by his own eyes (not in reproduction), Geyford shares his impressions of trips to Dordon to inspect the Paleolithic cave of Les-Ezi, in Tiruvanamalai, in Tiruvanamalai, The center of the Indian cult of Shiva, to the Museum of the minimalist sculpture in the town of Martha (Texas), as well as about meetings with artists - Anselm Kifer, Marina Abramovich, Robert Raushenberg and others in their workshops
