The book discusses the role of art in architecture with a
particular focus on colour and the dynamic relationships between
light, form, material surface, space and movement. Drawing on
historical examples to establish recurring themes, it examines the
work of artists and architects whose use of colour is informed by
artistic practice. Engagingly written and beautifully illustrated,
it is divided into three main sections: the first focusing on
architecture, the second on the artworks and the final section on
collaboration. Throughout, it bridges time, insightfully comparing
historic artworks and spaces with contemporary ones, addressing key
questions such as 'if an artwork is self-sufficient, how is this
accommodated within an architectural setting without compromising
both?' and setting out examples of what does and doesn't work.
