Colour Interactions at Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair in London
For Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair 2024 in London, Wrong Shop and Blēo created a colour installation based on the work of Josef Albers and his study of colour interaction.
The stand was painted in JAAF 11 Plate VI-3 and JAAF 12 Plate VI-3, a green and a pink from the Josef Albers Color Interactions Palette. Developed by Blēo in partnership with the Josef & Anni Albers Foundation, the colours are hand-mixed translations of plates from Albers’ Interaction of Color, translating his studies of chromatic relationships into architectural paint.
Used together across the exhibition space, the two colours demonstrate a central principle of Albers’ work: that the perception of a colour changes according to the colours surrounding it.
