Loosely arranged in 72 chapters, an inexhaustible mine of anecdotes, quotations, images, curious facts and useless information, serious science, jokes and memories, is presented in an inventive series of pages that are themselves demonstrations of the expressive use of type, space, colour and imagery. The Art of Looking Sideways does not set out to teach lessons, but it is full of wisdom and insight collected from all over the world. Describing himself as a visual jackdaw, designer Alan Fletcher has distilled a lifetime of experience and reflection into a witty exploration of subjects as perception, colour, aesthetics and value. The Art of Looking Sideways is a guide to visual awareness, a compilation that inspires those who enjoy the interplay between word and image, and who relish the odd and the unexpected. The book inspired curator Travis Geertruida in the realization of his exhibtion Positions : Gut Feeling at Stroom The Hague (Feb.7 - April 20, 2025).
