Description

Interaction of Color: 50th Anniversary Edition by Josef Albers, Nicholas Fox Weber
Josef Alberss classic Interaction of Color is a masterwork in art education. Conceived as a handbook and teaching aid for artists, instructors, and students, this influential book presents Alberss singular explanation of complex color theory principles. Originally published by Yale University Press in 1963 as a limited silkscreen edition with 150 color plates, Interaction of Color first appeared in paperback in 1971, featuring ten color studies chosen by Albers, and has remained in print ever since. With over a quarter of a million copies sold in its various editions since 1963, Interaction of Color remains an essential resource on color, as pioneering today as when Albers created it. Fifty years after Interactions initial publication, this anniversary edition presents a significantly expanded selection of close to sixty color studies alongside Alberss original text, demonstrating such principles as color relativity.

What he does in the studio is theological work as much as it is aesthetic work. In between pouring precious, pulverized minerals onto handmade paper to create the prismatic, refractive surfaces of his art, he comes into the quiet space in the studio in a discipline of awareness, waiting, prayer, and praise. Ranging from the Bible to T. S. Eliot, Mark Rothko, and Japanese Kintsugi technique, he shows how, unless we are making something, we cannot know the depth of Gods being and Gods grace permeating our lives. This poignant and beautiful book offers the perspective of, in Christian Wimans words, an accidental theologian, one who comes to spiritual questions always through the prism of art….
