Form through Colour: Josef Albers, Anni Albers and Gary Hume
Anni Albers and Gary Hume
Contemporary rug and fabric company Christopher Farr has collaborated with The Josef and Anni Albers Foundation and Gary Hume to create new, limited-edition collections around each of the artists’ signature series. Over 20 hand-crafted rugs, tapestries and fabric installations will be on show for the first time offering visitors the chance to see textile art based on the original designs of three complementary colourists from the Bauhaus to Britart eras alongside each other.
The exhibition has been conceived to showcase the innovative and imaginative use of colour in art, inspired by Josef Albers’ Interaction of Colour. Each of the series in the exhibition will show a simple but staggering use of colour and reveal how Josef Albers’ design principles work across a range of mediums.
