There’s also a fascinating and current exhibit at the Met. Mus. entitled Chroma, about the use of color in ancient sculpture. ************************************** Steven Kowalik, MSLS Head, Zabar Art Library<https://library.hunter.cuny.edu/zabar-art-library>, Room 1608 North Hunter College Libraries / CUNY 695 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10065 [log in to unmask] phone: 212-772-5054<tel:212-772-5054> *************************************** ________________________________ From: ARLIS/NA List <[log in to unmask]> on behalf of [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2022 4:44 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [ARLIS-L] Art Research for a Specific Undergrad Assignment Also: Edmund Thomas: ‘Primary Colours’.

Hall, M. B. (1992). Color and Meaning: Practice and Theory in Renaissance Painting. Cambridge, England: Cambridge University Press. There are lots of ties to culture, color and art, some of these are so obvious that we tend not to think about them at all (e.g., Mary/Madonna = blue, Roman rulers = purple). Color is also incredibly important for tapestry manufacturing, and you could point out that much color research was being performed in the 18th century in Europe for this purpose (among these explorations was the work of Michel-Eugene Chevreul (1786-1889) at Gobelins).

I am afraid I am not coming up with anything that great to help him. Any ideas as to how I could go about instructing his students on how to research a culture and the color(s) used in its art forms? Feel free to reply to me off list and many thanks in advance as I am open to any ideas!
