ReplyDeleteMy great aunt studied under Albers at Black Mountain, and we have all of her color studies in an old suitcase back home -- some cool stuff. Color aid and gouache smell so good!
ReplyDeleteThe story goes that he gave her a little painting, in blue and green, which she sent as a gift to my grandfather. But my grandmother hated my great aunt and thought the painting was ugly and had it burnt. Ergo, no Albers painting on my wall ... alas, alas. History is a bitch.
amazing! i love these, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteNick- Great story! Bummed about the painting though. Modern art does have that effect on some.... Break out those color studies and frame one of them, I bet they are amazing. I have aways loved those... my old ones are buried somewhere for some great nephew to discover..... P
