We bond with art when it offers
a point of contact with ourselves.
“I had never seen before August Sander’s picture ‘Forester’s Child,’
and indeed it is not often seen, Deborah tells me. Perhaps it
particularly resonates with me because I grew up in a tiny village
surrounded by forests. To me it reflects a particular German
moodiness that I know so well.”
