Interaction of Color: New Complete Edition de Josef Albers

Interaction of Color: New Complete Edition

Autor Josef Albers Cuvânt înainte de Nicholas Fox Weber
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 dec 2009
A luxurious two-volume edition with the complete original plates, text, and commentary
 
“Absolutely stunning.”—Felix Salmon, Reuters
 
Josef Albers’s masterwork, Interaction of Color, is one of the most influential books on color ever published. Originally issued in 1963 as a limited-edition set of commentary and 150 silkscreened color plates, the book introduced generations of students, artists, designers, and collectors to Albers’s unique approach to complex principles.
 
This beautiful edition brings Interaction back into classrooms and studios and onto bookshelves, where it will find an eager new audience. It replicates Albers’s revolutionary exercises, explaining concepts such as color relativity and vibrating and vanishing boundaries through the use of color, shape, die-cut forms, and movable flaps that illustrate his astonishing demonstrations of the changing and relative nature of color. Also included for the first time are studies from the Albers archive, produced by the artist’s students in the early 1960s.
 
This celebration of Albers’s legendary achievements is an essential addition to any serious art library.
 
Published in association with the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation

Recenzii

“The art book of the decade. . . . Absolutely stunning. If you know anybody who loves color, or art, or ever took a color class at art school, or just has bibliophilic tendencies, they will remember you fondly forever if you give it to them.”—Felix Salmon, Reuters

“The magnificent presentation of this edition will continue to make this book indispensable to the next generation of art students and teachers alike.”—Douglas F. Smith, Library Journal

“Josef Albers’s Interaction of Color stands alone among color theory books: a classic that never fails to surprise with its continued relevance.”—Imprint

“The three-volume set of Josef Albers’s seminal work of color theory is a delight to page through, whether [one] is an artist or just deciding what color to paint the bathroom.”—New York Magazine, “Expensive Gifts for Dads That Are Actually Worth It”

Notă biografică

Josef Albers, one of the most influential artist-educators of the 20th century, was a member of the Bauhaus group in Germany during the 1920s. In 1933 he came to the United States, where he taught at Black Mountain College for sixteen years. In 1950 he joined the faculty at Yale University as chairman of the Department of Design. The recipient of numerous awards and honorary degrees, Albers was elected to the National Institute of Arts and Letters in 1968 and was professor emeritus of art at Yale until his death in 1976. Nicholas Fox Weber is executive director of the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
“One of the most important books on color ever written.”—Michael Hession, Gizmodo
 
“Interaction of Color with its illuminating visual exercises and mind-bending optical illusions, remains an indispensable blueprint to the art of seeing. . . . An essential piece of visual literacy.“—Maria Popova, Brain Pickings
 
Josef Albers’s 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 Albers’s 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 first created it.
 
Fifty years after Interaction’s initial publication, this anniversary edition presents a significantly expanded selection of close to sixty color studies alongside Albers’s original text, demonstrating such principles as color relativity, intensity, and temperature; vibrating and vanishing boundaries; and the illusion of transparency and reversed grounds. A celebration of the longevity and unique authority of Albers’s contribution, this landmark edition will find new audiences in studios and classrooms around the world.
