    Exhibition: The Shape of Color – Understanding Color Theory in BRAHM’s Collection

    Blowing Rock Art & History Museum 159 Ginny Stevens Lane, Blowing Rock, NC, United States

    This 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.
