Josef Albers – Interaction Hardcover – 13 July 2018

Master of art. Love this book. Get it while you can as his books soon become rarities.

Pleased with the quality of the book. Giving it to a budding artist.

Es una pieza absolutamente maravillosa, los colores de impresión, el contenido textual e histórico es fabuloso. Está impreso en Alemania. Una de mis mejores adquisiciones en libros de arte. Amazon lo entregó dos dias antes de lo previsto. Absolutamente satisfecho.

Gostei bastante do livro, belas imagens e boaImpressao

The reproductions of Alber’s paintings are extensive and detailed. For me, the real highlight of this book is Jeannette Redensek’s essay “Farbenfabeln: On the Origins and Development of the ‘Homage to the Square’”. The complete technical process of making Alber’s squares is detailed, from initial sketches, measurements, colour patches and samples, selecting paint brands and mixing, preparing grounds, painting the squares (without masks, completely freehand with palette knives!), varnishes, titles, information on the backs of canvases, etc etc. This kind of exploration of technical skills is quite rare in these kinds of books. For me, an amateur art historian and a weekend painter, this kind of thing is extraordinary. If you admire post-Modernism, Colour Field Painting, or artistic variations on a theme, I cannot recommend this book highly enough.

predomina os ensaios sobre as teorias pragmáticas em relação ao artista e os movimentos artísticos , nao era o que esperava ,bastante cansativo!
