“Unveiling Hidden Depths: How Patrick Bringley’s ‘All the Beauty in the World’ Transforms Everyday Life into Extraordinary Art”
The book’s unconventional, non-linear structure is relatively short, but it does not lack rich insight, not just about art, but loss and grief. Being an architecture and visual narrative fan myself, I was awed and delighted by the use of the museum’s floorplan, as well as the occasional illustration by the very talented Maya McMahon, which, of course, this being a book about art, was much appreciated. Perhaps the best part of a book well-read, is that it encourages the reader to act. Not only did All The Beauty in the World, expand my worldview, but it made me want to make art, whether written or visual. It also afforded a new perspective: grief can be compartmentalized and transformed into something of well, beauty.
