“The daring to look” by Antonio Muñoz Molina

daring-to-look-antonio-munoz-molina

“There is a moment when the eyes suddenly open to art, just like the ears to music or a language that until then has been studied with the feeling of not advancing, or doing so very slowly. Pierre Francastel, Giulio Carlo Argan, Erwin Panofsky and E. Gombrich taught me to look at works of art with wide open eyes and to look for their links with the real world, trying to see in them what their contemporaries saw and understand the place they occupied in their lives and in their belief systems.”
