42 Books About Art – Artworks – 2008

Here's an interesting thing to ponder: when you look at a painting, you automatically try to find the words to describe it, don't you? Whereas when you read a book, you form a picture in your mind's eye to make sense of the words. And it's this paradox between the visual and the literary that's led the Canberra artist David Sequeira to create an exhibition called 42 Books About Art. It's been on in the Sydney University Art Gallery, and was held in association with the Sydney Writers' Festival.
