Color Soiree: Macro Vision
Color Soirée: Macro Vision is less a history of ANDart, and more an articulated idea which traverses the subjectivity of its point of view. The approach is both one of addition - a gradual visual and theoretical expansion - and of subtraction - the simplification and the optimization of its artwork. ANDart shows an exciting way to experience color and its relationship to light and space, shadow and reflection within specific contextual environments. Macro Vision means to turn introversion and detachment from surroundings to extroversion capable of absorbing an atmospheric space.
Color is Perpetually Transformative
As a departure from the past, images of indoor/outdoor surrounds are presented in regard to emotional response and value judgement of color, I.e. human behavior.
- Mexican architect Luis Barragan (1902-1988) was considered an "arbiter" of color and light and their relation to spacial paradigms. His work reflected the spirit of location and was influenced by local aesthetics. Contemporary art is the logical result of what happened in the past, so just as Barragan had been inspired by Le Corbusier (Franco-Swiss architect) and Bauhaus (German) concepts (Kandinsky, Albers), so did he influence U.S. artists Dan Flavin and Agnes Martin.
- Pay to Park, we see the other extreme, the concrete structure of a parking garage with imposing silent walls casting shadows across a motionless space waiting for some event to happen. The indecisive, tentative quality of the space is interrupted with colorful shapes that relieve tension.
- The decisive nature of past events might make Altar and Belgium feel temporary, fragile and heavy. Saturated colors help stabilize what could be an emotional viewing experience.
- Super Cart likes "white light" and black.
- Trash Heaps stimulated the making of the Box Top Series: Color as Content.
- Cans lights up in a spectrum of color used boldly to reflect advertising methods with
- Lobby, superimposed optical abstraction, neutral gray absorbs the colors to influence color
Color perception is contextual in terms of abstract sensations that can be generated in all media - pigment, ink, dye. Color is subjective and can be excited in various ways by external stimuli (environment) or internal bodily conditions (human). (Color theory- Wikipedia)
ANDart created its identity in the belief color is a conduit for health, wellness, healing.
