The new book by the English art historian and art critic Martin Gayford (born 1952), author of collections of interviews with David Hockney and Lucian Freud, studies on British painting in the 1960s-1980s, Van Gogh and Michelangelo, is a fascinating art travelogue: in it collected stories about peculiar pilgrimages to the shrines of classical and contemporary art. Proving the thesis that any work of art, and especially a great one, can be fully perceived and felt only with your own eyes (not in a reproduction), Gayford shares his impressions of trips to the Dordogne to inspect the Paleolithic cave of Les Ezis, in Tiruvannamalai, the center of the Indian cult of Shiva, to the museum of minimalist sculpture in the town of Marfa (Texas), as well as meetings with artists - Anselm Kiefer, Marina Abramovich, Robert Rauschenberg and others - in their workshops.
