"Color in Art is concerned with the history of color but is not itself a history. Instead, each chapter develops a theme from a different scientific discipline, as seen from the viewpoint of artists such as Kandinsky, van Gogh and Kapoor. Flags, synaesthesia, theosophy, theater design, chromotherapy and chromophobia are among the many topics covered in this wide-ranging and engaging introduction to the place and power of color in life and art."--BOOK JACKET.
