A classic on learning colors, published exclusively by Hazan, now available in a new edition (Les Incontournables Collection). This book is an account of an experimental method of studying and teaching color by one of the masters of the Bauhaus (school of architecture and applied arts, founded in 1919 in Germany) and Black Mountain College (experimental free university, founded in 1933 in the United States), on how colors are used and perceived in art, architecture, textiles, interior design, and graphic media. Josef Albers demonstrates that "with color, we do not see what we see, because color—the most relative of artistic means of expression—offers an incalculable number of faces or appearances. Studying them in their respective interactions, in their interdependencies, will enrich our 'vision' of the world, and of ourselves."
