Summary:
"A handsome, beautifully produced compilation of meditations and exercises to inspire us to
find
joy
and expand the
ways
we engage with the people and places, the objects and tasks we encounter in our
everyday
lives. Long-time workplace advice columnist for The New York Times, Rob Walker, draws from his annual School for Visual Arts course and from interviews he conducted with men and women from a wide range of disciplines, has designed
131
exercises and meditations to encourage and guide us in rediscovering
joy
and
creativity
in our lives. In a world ruled by distraction and increasing demands on our attention, it's never been more important to notice what matters to you. To stay eager, to connect, to
find
interest in the
everyday
, to notice what others overlook, these are skills that are both vital and delightful--and this gorgeously illustrated volume can help you acquire and hone these very skills. The short, playful entries that make up The
Art
of
Noticing
include "Look for Ghosts and Ruins," "Look Slowly," "Make It
Art
," "Compose a Personal Plaque." Here is a book that will provide
inspiration
to everyone, from the artist or designer developing an aesthetic to the techie looking to disrupt a new market. But, it will be its own joyful reward for anyone, in any walk of life, who takes a chance at
noticing
