Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this beautiful and thorough investigation, The Secret Language of Color celebrates and illuminates the countless ways in which color colors our world. Why is the sky blue, the grass green, a rose red? Most of us have no idea how to answer these questions, nor are we aware that color pervades nearly all aspects of life, from the subatomic realm and the natural world to human culture and psychology. Organized into chapters that begin with a fascinating explanation of the physics and chemistry of color, The Secret Language of Color travels from outer space to Earth, from plants to animals to humans. In these chapters we learn about how and why we see color, the nature of rainbows, animals with color vision far superior and far inferior to our own, how our language influences the colors we see, and much more. Between these chapters, authors Joann Eckstut and Ariele Eckstut turn their attention to the individual hues of the visible spectrum?red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet?presenting each in fascinating, in-depth detail. Including hundreds of stunning photographs and dozens of informative, often entertaining graphics, every page is a breathtaking demonstration of color and its role in the world around us. Whether you see red, are a shrinking violet, or talk a blue streak, this is the perfect book for anyone interested in the history, science, culture, and beatuty of color in the natural and man-made world.

Download or read book How Color Works written by Pamela Fraser and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Color Works: Color Theory in the Twenty-First Century propels students into engagement with color via critical and creative involvement. This interactive book describes how color contributes to meaning in specific masterful artworks (with large full-color illustrations), and encouragesstudents to produce color variations of their own in response. How Color Works approaches the aesthetics of color in contemporary terms and is relevant to both traditional and experimental approaches to art-making How Color Works seeks to demonstrate the importance of color in broad terms, and intends to be used by art students in all media who wish to expand their understanding of color and how it works artistically. In several respects, How Color Works presents color in more contemporary terms thancompeting texts. It describes relevant color science in current terms, where inquiries into subjective color experience and objective color space are not settled at all, but contested and argued. Digital color, an entirely new area of pursuit, is explored on an equal basis with aspects of printproduction and more traditional media.Where science is described, opposing theories and unanswered questions are presented. Furthermore, color and meaning are presented in culturally specific terms, encouraging students to appreciate the power of color to affect meaning based on specific social histories. Exploring lesser known colorcontributions in art and scholarship, How Color Works: Color Theory in the Twenty-First Century demonstrates that interest in color is alive and well, even in surprising corners of artistic production, and offers a course of immersion that will teach students with no prior experience how to createand use color in a sophisticated fashion.
