  • More about Colour Beyond the Surface: Art in Architecture

The book explores the role of art in architecture, focusing on color and the relationships between light, form, material surface, space, and movement. It examines the work of artists and architects and bridges time to compare historic artworks and spaces with contemporary ones.

Format: Hardback
Length: 192 pages
Publication date: 10 August 2022
Publisher: Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd

The book delves into the intricate interplay between art and architecture, exploring the profound impact of color on the dynamic relationships between light, form, material surface, space, and movement. By drawing upon historical examples, it establishes recurring themes and examines the work of artists and architects whose use of color is informed by artistic practice. Written in an engaging and visually captivating style, the book is organized into three main sections: the first focusing on architecture, the second on the artworks, and the final section on collaboration. Throughout, it seamlessly bridges time, comparing historic artworks and spaces with contemporary counterparts, addressing key questions such as whether an artwork can be self-sufficient within an architectural setting without compromising both. It also provides insightful examples of what works and what doesn't, offering valuable insights into the complex and ever-evolving relationship between art and architecture.
