On Color: A Panel Discussion
Thursday, Sept. 13 at 7 p.m.
Gallery 72, 72 Marietta St NW, Atlanta, GA
About the Panel Discussion:
The language and meaning of colors are central to the work of artists, scientists, chefs, musicians, and designers.
 
Designers use color to finding the right palette to bring life to their products. Musicians often think about the color of tonality and sound so they can produce body moving rhythms. Blending warm and cool tastes, Chefs use color relationships in creating their recipes. Pastry chefs, like chefs, use color as an element to sculpt their edible forms. Color is a crucial dimension of artistic expression; this can easily be seen in “Translucence,” an exhibition of new work by painter Deanna Sirlin.
 
This panel accompanies Sirlin’s exhibition by focusing on her primary concern as a colorist – the language of color. Speakers from a variety of fields will address what color means to them and how they use it or address it in their work.
