Color: Counter-current reflections and appropriation through practice : Différence entre versions

Version actuelle datée du 1 juin 2023 à 14:13

Through workshop practice, the course aims to freely appropriate different strategies for using color, proposing an active deconstruction of the gaze and inviting participants to take a personal, critical and potentially transgressive approach to color.

Inspired by the works of artists from diverse horizons, counter-current theories and color-related themes, we will carry out a series of practical exercises. The course also offers a discussion space where participants can contribute their own references and/or current artistic practices.

Exercises throughout the year:

Each work / theory chosen for analysis offers a key to reading / entry in relation to the theme of color as well as a critical positioning / point of view situated in relation to societal questioning (decolonial, feminist, LGBTQIA+, ecological, etc.).

The course also focuses on the work of color theorists who have been invisible in art history (GARTSIDE, VANDERPOEL).

Exercise themes (flexible and evolving) :

Colors x semantic fields x imagination

Taste, colonialism and deconstruction of "chromatic dogmas" Harmony

Chromatic analysis: nature, art history, personal references

Color as matter / color creation / natural inks

-Chroma is the title of the book written by Derek Jarman about color, in the last months of his life, when he was losing his sight. It is a kind of autobiography through color, where chromatic impressions, societal reflections, quotations and childhood memories are mixed.
+Inspired by the works of artists from diverse horizons, counter-current theories and color-related themes, we will carry out a series of practical exercises. The course also offers a discussion space where participants can contribute their own references and/or current artistic practices.
-Jarman can no longer see colors. But he can tell them, they are in his mind, his body and in his emotions. He thus exposes one of the most powerful aspects of color: its sensory and emotional impact.
-It is from this premise that we will, through various practices (vegetable dyeing, painting, colored drawing) and daily experiences (clothing, food) explore the physical and subjective capacities of color. We will also see how different codes, economic and social issues are intertwined with its perception.
-The course will be articulated between observations, theoretical and technical learning, and experimental research. The first step will be to analyze the relationship that each person has with colors, through the elaboration of a chromatic diary. This intimate repertory of color will be used during the second semester as a support for the realization of a personal project.
