COLOR with Steven Bleicher
Steven Bleicher is an artist and teacher, and the author of Contemporary Color - Theory and Use. He talks with us about the psychology of color, color harmony, disharmony, and a map for finding either. We also discuss the color in the films Children of Men and Pan’s Labyrinth, as well as the photographs of Sandy Skoglund and Martin Parr.

Informative, interesting dialogue, but does Steven Bleicher have any suggestions of the best way of teaching students Colour theory. When going through the exercise of Colour wheel/Theory some learners find it uninspiring and tedious… Joseph Albers used to teach colour using coloured paper.. . but is there any other way….

Seems to me the most compelling way to teach about color might be to do so in the context of images. Peter Greenaway, and Oliver Stone’s “Natural Born Killers” comes to mind. Would it not be wonderful to create learning moments of color theory that came about from a pure (as possible) exploration/experimentation and discovery. What if a student took their one of own images, boldly photoshopped, and then shared with others too create their own, or applied existing color theory?
