Description
Colour Beyond the Surface: Art in Architecture Fiona McLachlan explores the role of art in architecture, focusing on colour and its dynamic relationships with light, form, material surface, space, and movement. This engagingly written book examines successful collaborations between artists and architects whose use of colour is informed by artistic practice. Historical examples are used to establish recurring themes, drawing attention to the work of artists and architects who have successfully bridged the gap between art and architecture. The book is divided into three main sections, covering architecture, artworks, and collaboration, and features beautifully illustrated examples throughout. By comparing historic artworks and spaces with contemporary ones, McLachlan addresses key questions about the relationship between art and architecture, providing insight into what works and what doesn't in these dynamic collaborations.
