Ways of Seeing is a 1972 BBC four-part television series of 30-minute films created chiefly by writer John Berger and producer Mike Dibb.

Berger's scripts were adapted into a book of the same name.

The series and book criticize traditional Western cultural aesthetics by raising questions about hidden ideologies in visual images.

The series is partially a response to Kenneth Clark's Civilisation series, which represents a more traditionalist view of the Western artistic and cultural canon.
