Lapwing & Fox - John Berger
conversations between John Berger and John Christie
KORTE INHOUD
"Lapwing and Fox is a series of conversations in the form of letters and small books sent between two friends, writer and critic John Berger and artist and film-maker John Christie. Complementing their award-winning correspondence on the subject of colour, I Send You This Cadmium Red, published in 2000, Lapwing and Fox covers a wide range of ideas surrounding art and artists, drawing and paintin, nature and place. As well as the close scrutiny of works by Giacometti, Modigliani and Auerbach, and recollections of working with other artists and writers, the correspondence also explores a whole range of unexpectedly connected subjects, from making drawings of the dead and dying to encounters with barn owls and hares, and discussions of the mythologies surrounding them; from recollections of journeys on the Silk Road and observations of the night sky in Tajikistan to memories of the carved stone churches of Lalibela in Ethiopia and meditations on angels in literature, art and film..."--Page 4 of cover.
