Contemporary Color, New Trends In Color Theory - Call for Papers


Category: Calls For Papers [View all]
Posted by: MACAA Conference 10/08
Deadline: 06/30/08

New strides have been made in color theory: it’s no longer just the Bauhausian tradition. New media have necessitated changes in traditional color curricula, changing how we think about and teach color theory. New philosophers such as David Bachelor and Maihi Nadin have taken notice. In his book Chromophobia, Bachelor discusses artists moving away from paint tubes and mixing color to premixed readymade colors. New areas including color psychology have moved the discussion on color from one solely based on visual appearance and color interaction to issues on inherited, physiological and emotional responses to color. Discussion have also expanded to include cultural aspects of color and nonwestern traditions of color theory and use. This session looks at new concepts in color theory and how they are disseminated in the classroom/studio. Papers may include new color assignments, uses of new media and new methods of instruction. Contact Steven Bleicher at stbleicher@aol.com for details.
