Subtitle: A Mind-Bending Journey Among the Inspired Artists and Obsessive Art Fiends Who Taught Me How to See.
Here is what I got from this book, on how to see art:
1. Look at the art for at least five minutes. At least. Forty would be better. Four hours is not unheard of.
2. Find five things about it that catch your senses. Then find five more.
3. Then read the information sign about the piece. If you must.
That's what I got out of it!

If you didn't, good luck unseeing it now. -- I never could see it!

The best art-history education I ever got was staring at art while Guggenheim.
