Reader XLIII

by José Manuel Solares · Madrid, ES

Reader XLIII Sculpture inspired by the quote, “The ability and taste for reading gives access to what has already been discovered by others.” Abraham Lincoln The phrase highlights the importance of reading as a gateway to knowledge accumulated throughout history. When we read, we are not only enjoying a story or learning about a subject, but we are also connecting with other people's ideas, experiences and discoveries. The ability to read allows us to access a vast world of information and wisdom that has been shared by authors, scientists, philosophers and thinkers from different eras and cultures. Each book, article or essay is a bridge that connects us to the reflections and discoveries of those who came before us.
