“When someone says, ‘red’ (referring to a description or a
colour), and when fifty people are listening, you can expect that
fifty people will think of red. You can be sure that all of these
reds are different.” With the first two sentences that begin a
masterpiece of art education, Interaction of Color, it becomes
clear how complicated the impact of colour and its visual
perception can be. First published in 1963 by Yale University Press
in a limited serigraph edition with 150 colour plates, this text
became a mass-market paperback with just a few colour plates in
1971. Since then, more than a quarter-million copies of it in
various editions have been sold. This influential handbook and
teaching tool for artists, instructors, and students is now being
republished as a new translation in a much-expanded edition. With a
new introduction by Heinz Liesbrock, it contains around sixty
illustrations of the colour principles Albers used to demonstrate
important axioms and rules of colour and its effects. As did
previous editions, this handbook offers indispensable knowledge for
everyone who deals with visual communication.
