Additional Interaction of Color: Text of the Original Edition With Revised Plate Section Information

The masterworks of one of the most influential teacher-artists of the twentieth century, originally published as a limited, boxed edition in 1963, was conceived as a guide and teaching aid for artists, instructors, and students. A paperbound edition, containing the unabridged text of the original edition, plus ten representative color plates, chosen from the original silk-screen reproductions and printed by offset lithography, was published in 1971. Since those color plates have now been worn out in repeated reprintings, Mr. Albers has selected ten different color studies, with new comments, for this revised edition.

"The text of Interaction of Color provides the careful reader with the content of Josef Albers’ famous color course. His teaching is based on learning by direct perception, and not by theories or color systems. There are many books on color on the market, but no one combines eyesight with such profound insight as Josef Albers does in Interaction of Color."—Hannes Beckmann

"The publication of this famous book in paperback is an event. . . . It is clearly written and easy to understand. . . . This book ought to be owned by any serious student or teacher, regardless of the kind of painting he does."—The Artist

What Customers Say About Interaction of Color: Text of the Original Edition With Revised Plate Section:

Once you read it and try it you will have a new way of seeing everything in your environment. A one of a kind book. I can only say buy it & don't lend it out.

Buy it quick. I had the opportunity to see the original book, made by Albers students. If you do follow the instructions in this book you will be very amazed at how your knowledge of art will change.

This is a really classic book. I can't say enough about the mind opening abilities that this book has to offer. This is a taste of genius from a Master.

Its a collector's item to me. A must for anyone wanting to dicover the true meaning of color.

Is a little weird how the author presents his analysis, how he propose the reader should follow practising, images are good enough, it is a good book.

And, we should all realize that each different kind of paint makes for unique color interactions.This book is an historical artifact worth owning, but not using.Mark Gottsegen"The Painter's Handbook" and "The Interaction of Color" was a great "art piece" for its time, but is now seen by most people who know more about color than Albers, as an explication of the obvious. It would be better for readers interested in color theory and practice to start mixing their own paints together to find out for themselves how their colors interact.

I did not, so I cannot evaluate that aspect.While not as comprehensive as some other books on color theory, Albers scores points by covering several subjects that are not as well represented in those other books.Definitely recommended for anyone looking to build a comprehensive library on color theory. Albers provides a series of explorations and experiments for the reader to follow. If you have the resources to perform the experiments as directed, this will probably be a wonderful book.

I highly recommend it. This is an incredible resource for people really serious about learning the dynamics of color. You will get the most out of it by actually doing the exercises - it won't help nearly as much if you just read it and look at the examples.
