Summary:
Over the millennia, humans have used pigments to decorate, narrate, and instruct. Charred bone, ground earth, stones, bugs, and blood were the first pigments. New pigments were manufactured by simple processes such as corrosion and calcination until the Industrial Revolution introduced colors outside the spectrum of the natural world.

Summary:
Over the millennia, humans have used pigments to decorate, narrate, and instruct. Charred bone, ground earth, stones, bugs, and blood were the first pigments. New pigments were manufactured by simple processes such as corrosion and calcination until the Industrial Revolution introduced colors outside the spectrum of the natural world. "Pigments" brings together leading art historians and conservators to trace the history of the materials used to create color and their invention across diverse cultures and time periods. This richly illustrated book features incisive historical essays and case studies that shed light on the many forms of pigments—the organic and inorganic; the edible and the toxic; and those that are more precious than gold. It shows how pigments were as central to the earliest art forms and global trade networks as they are to commerce, ornamentation, and artistic expression today. The book reveals the innate instability and mutability of most pigments and discusses how few artworks or objects look as they did when they were first created.

This is her first monograph, featuring a collection of off-beat, imaginative color studies populated with birds, animals and irreverent, sometimes naughty personae. Short, laugh-out-loud prose accompanies each of the portraits and vivid scenes. Her dog sleeps on a Ukranian-gold and blue rug; her raven vacuums the house; absurd characters from movies and art stand in for obnoxious or dreamy colors; and the birds – so many birds – sing of freedom.

Summary:
"Interaction of color" is often presented as an overarching theory of color, but it is actually a method of learning how to better see and understand color—many of the color exercises illustrated in "Interaction of color" were devised by Albers’s students: cutting and pasting, looking, pondering, and learning. This workbook companion is a teaching tool designed to enable readers to engage in the kinds of tactile creativity and exploration that characterized Albers’s own classroom. Focusing on eight of the most important lessons in "Interaction of color", this book invites readers to learn by doing, using only simple materials. Core instructions for each exercise are enhanced by additional tips, references to Albers’s original text and illustrations, and stories about how Albers presented the ideas in class. The book and exercises are sufficiently nuanced to challenge and inspire seasoned artists, designers, and educators while also being readily accessible to younger readers and less-experienced practitioners.

Summary:
Dans les décennies d'après-guerre, la couleur semblait avoir déserté la ville. Aujourd'hui, elle retrouve pleinement son droit de cité et investit aussi bien les immeubles de logement que les bureaux, les équipements, et même les infrastructures de transport. Les architectes et les urbanistes la considèrent comme indispensable à la compréhension de l'espace urbain et à la qualité de vie des habitants, susceptible d'enrichir l'environnement en lui apportant lisibilité, rythme et perspective. Cet ouvrage dresse un panorama historique de la couleur dans Le milieu urbain au cours du XXe siècle, avec des éclairages sur certains mouvements emblématiques tels que l'Art nouveau, l'avant-garde russe, le modernisme ou L'art cinétique. Il décrit ensuite les outils et les méthodes - gammes, palettes, nuanciers - qui permettent d'intervenir dans le paysage urbain avec rigueur et subtilité. Un certain nombre d'expériences, menées dans les domaines de La restauration chromatique du patrimoine urbain et de l'architecture contemporaine, retracent les démarches exemplaires de certains concepteurs. Depuis Jean-Philippe Lenclos, qui parcourt le monde pour constituer des " atlas de la couleur ", au Centre de la couleur de Moscou, qui œuvre à l'échelle de la métropole tout entière, et jusqu'aux architectes comme Jean Nouvel ou Christian de Portzamparc, qui utilisent la couleur (et de plus en plus la couleur-lumière) comme un matériau à part entière, nombreux sont les acteurs qui montrent que la question de la couleur dans nos villes, loin d'être marginale, est aujourd'hui devenue centrale.

En effet, la couleur n'est pas anodine, elle est matière à part entière : elle peut transformer l'espace architecturé et le valoriser si elle répond à une réelle prise en compte du milieu naturel et construit dans lequel elle s'exerce, et des enjeux auxquels elle est confrontée. Largement illustré par des exemples tirés de projets, de références de chantier, de réalisations concrètes, «Chromo-architecture» propose une réflexion à la fois théorique et pratique sur l'application de la couleur dans l'environnement, l'urbanisme et l'architecture.
