Painting in Harmony: Color Theory for Painters with Julia Zanes (4/9-4/30 $125)

Using the texts of Joseph Albers and Johannes Itten we will talk about Color.
We will play a synesthetic game of musical paintings and watch a slideshow of paintings that illustrate the color contrasts of Johannes Itten. We will mix colors with a cursory discussion of new and historic pigments. Each student will make a painting the subject of which is Harmony, and we will see where trying to pin down the idea of color harmony leads.
