    A captivating meditation on the nature of cities and how we see ourselves in relation to them. Written in travelogue form, this marvelous text is presented beside the authors own black-and-white photographs. Victor Burgin, a professor on the Board of Studies in History of Consciousness at the University of California, documents his travels from his native England to London, Berlin, New York, Singapore, and the islands of Stromboli and Tobago. When we see through Burgin's eyes, our relationships to the cities we know are gently transformed to the point that we may even view them as works of art.

  • Product Description

    Victor Burgin recalls some of the cities he has known in a way familiar to all who have traveled, by showing photographs and telling anecdotes. Some Cities gathers places and moments from a life route that the author has taken from the North of England to his recent home in northern California. Although it explores themes that are characteristic of Burgin's earlier theoretical and visual works, Some Cities is a unique insight into the artist's mind.
