"Ways of Seeing" by John Berger challenges conventional ways of viewing art, arguing that vision is shaped by cultural, social, and historical contexts, rather than being a neutral act. The book explores how power structures, particularly those related to gender and class, influence our interpretations of images, especially in advertising and traditional European oil paintings.
