Painting thousands of squares within squares (within squares), in order to study the effect of different color combinations, Albers pursued his project methodically, eventually publishing Interaction of Color, and becoming the first living artist to have a single-person show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.Īn engaging book about an artist whose work has been quite influential, although his name is not as well known as some others, An Eye for Color: The Story of Josef Albers also (very appropriately) has immense visual appeal. Eventually, in 1949, he began his famous study of color, which would prove so influential in the world of the arts, and which lasted for twenty-seven years.
