SUMMARY:Exhibition: The Shape of Color - Understanding Color Theory in BRAHM's Collection
DESCRIPTION:Image Credit: Anne Wall Thomas\, The Way to There\, 2015\, mixed-media on paper\, 26 inches wide x 30 inches high (framed)\, Gift of Mary Wall Garren in honor of Anne Wall Thomas\, BRAHM Permanent Collection 2024.006.001 \nMarch 15 – December 27\, 2025 | Cannon Gallery \nColor is fundamental to human perception\, yet its nature has fascinated and perplexed philosophers\, artists\, and scientists for centuries. Through observation\, experimentation\, and artistic practice\, they have developed theories to define and manipulate color as both a science and a sensation. From Antiquity through the 20th century\, these evolving ideas have shaped how we see and use color in art and design. \nThis exhibition explores key milestones in the history of color theory through seven case studies\, each centered on a single work of art from BRAHM’s Permanent Collection. Alongside these works\, diagrams and historical models illustrate how color has been classified\, studied\, and understood over time. By examining these varied approaches\, The Shape of Color invites us to consider the ways in which color influences our perception\, emotions\, and the visual world around us. \nWebsite
