Josef Albers' Interaction of Color

Josef Albers' Interaction of Color

January 18 - March 22
Sat
9:30 AM - 12:30 PM
All Levels
LOCATION NOTE: This class will be taking place at our South Lake Union Location.


Josef Albers' book Interaction of Color, published in 1963, was the summation of his experience teaching about color at The Bauhaus, Black Mountain College, and Yale University. In this ten-week class we will work through many of the projects described in the book, using Albers' preferred material, colored paper collage. We will also learn about the history of the book itself, its impact on 20th century painting, and continued influence today.

Please note, this is not a painting class per se, though painters should find it enlightening; rather, it is a class in which we challenge our preconceived notions about color and how we perceive it.
