Interaction of Color – Josef Albers

"In visual perception a color is almost never seen as it really is - as it physically is."

Josef Albers, a master of the Bauhaus, presents a series of experiments to demonstrate the relativity of color. He shows how the same color can look completely different depending on its background, and how different colors can look the same. He treats color not as a static fact, but as a dynamic interaction.

Albers's masterpiece is the essential handbook for artists and designers. It is not just a theory of color, but a training manual for the eye. It teaches us that perception is subjective and that vision is an active, creative process.
