Synopsis
Designers and architects have to make decisions regarding color every day. But how does one find the necessary inspiration? The appropriate color? How do other designers and artists deal with the issue? With Chroma, the Greek word for color, as its title, this illustrated book provides answers to these questions and makes it clear that color is much more than mere decoration - it is one of the central problems of creative work. In the process, Chroma embraces the sensuous experience of color, inspiring and seducing the reader with unusual projects, from industrial products to color field painting. The book presents works by younger designers like Stefan Diez and Arik Levy as well as famous artists like Ellsworth Kelly. All of the works are presented in large-scale reproductions and also in a kind of color gradient, in which they are assigned to the chapters "monochromatic," "multichromatic," and "achromatic." The spectrum encompasses all conceivable shades and combinations, from brilliant and colorful through tasteful and subdued all the way to black-and-white contrasts. An additional chapter analyzes the work of outstanding artists, architects, and designers like Gerhard Richter, Konstantin Grcic, and Sauerbruch Hutton, who grapple with color to an unusual degree and have formulated characteristic chromatic worlds. An alphabetical index provides background information on the artists and studios selected., Designers and architects have to make decisions regarding color every day.

Aber wie findet man die wegweisende Inspiration? Die passende Farbe? Wie gehen andere Gestalter oder K nstler mit dem Thema um? Unter dem Titel Chroma , dem griechischen Wort f r Farbe, gibt der vorliegende Bildband Antwort auf diese Fragen und macht deutlich, dass Farbe eben nicht nur Dekoration ist, sondern eine der zentralen Problemstellungen kreativer Arbeit. Dabei setzt Chroma auf die sinnliche Erfahrung von Farbe, inspiriert und verf hrt mit au ergew hnlichen Projekten von Industrieprodukten bis Farbfeldmalerei. Das Buch pr sentiert sowohl die Arbeiten j ngerer Designer wie Stefan Diez und Arik Levy als auch die ber hmter K nstler wie Ellsworth Kelly. S mtliche Arbeiten sind gro formatig dargestellt und in einer Art Farbverlauf den Kapiteln "monochromatic", "multichromatic" und "achromatic" zugeordnet. Das Spektrum umfasst alle erdenklichen T ne und Kombinationen, von leuchtenden, bunten ber dezente Farbkompositionen, bis hin zu Schwarz-Wei -Kontrasten. Ein weiteres Kapitel analysiert die Arbeit herausragender K nstler, Architekten und Designer wie Gerhard Richter, Konstantin Grcic oder Sauerbruch Hutton, die sich in besonderem Ma e mit Farbe auseinandersetzen und zu einer charakteristischen Farbwelt gefunden haben. Ein alphabetischer Index liefert Hintergrundinformationen zu den ausgew hlten Personen und Studios.
