The Color of Light is about how we see. Without light, we would see nothing, and most of the time, we think about what light allows us to see! But what happens when you look at the work of Joaquín Sorolla and John Singer Sargent? Both are masters of light, capturing its intense, fleeting effects” through their use of “bold brushwork, vibrant colors, and contrasts between warm highlights and cool shadows.” When you squint, the work becomes more than just a copy of what is in front of you. You start to actually see the light itself! The patterns and directional flow are so powerful! The work moves toward abstraction and design and has inspired me to suggest this show! I hope you catch fire as well.
