| Notes | Magazine View on colour: the color forcasting book Latest Issue: No. 35 (Sep.) 2008 Description: A one-off issue of View on Colour, uniting images from previous issues and new articles dealing with A WORLD OF FOLK. View on Colour, the legendary and inspirational colour forecasting publication, in this rare just one special issue dedicated to the world of folk art. A symphony of images reveals inspirational examples of real folk arts and crafts as well as contemporary design and artwork indebted to ethnic heritage from all over the world. Many of the images were regrouped from previous issues of View on Colour and Bloom and replenished by new illustrated articles. Quotation from Li Edelkoorts editorial: … Narration has a dominant role in the expression of folk, recounting stories of landscapes, gardens, animals, dolls, food, craft and toys with the revival of narrative techniques like colour-weaving, printing and embroidery. We need to express our inner selves and our roots with a form of urgency and exuberance. Therefore, colours are back at their most glorious, harmonising with each other in patterned and layered proposals, whether in cold nordic neutrals, fresh rural romantics, horticultural naturals or saturated sygnaletic brights. Colour becomes a tool once again. Enjoy! There is nothing more to say, but plenty of beauty to see in this special edition. |
