About this Event
In this 3-hour, in-person workshop, you'll learn about Josef Albers and his classic book, Interaction of Color. You'll be introduced to the principles of color that he learned at the Bauhaus, specifically how to identify colors based on hue, value, saturation, and temperature. And you'll learn how to perform two of Albers' most important color experiments: simultaneous contrast and the relativity of color, and color transparency and space illusion.
Supplies for this workshop will be provided.
Note: This workshop is held on campus at the School of Visual Arts.
