Author Description

<p>From the author of <i>Becoming Invisible</i>, further exercises in invisibility through Bauhaus color theory</p><p><i>On Colour... </i> extends the theories of color harmony that Joahnnes Itten taught at the Bauhaus and describes how "through perfect control of breath and color one will eventually be able to generate a luminous cloud of such purity and intensity that it renders all inside it invisible. <p>Beautifully designed and printed, it describes how one can, potentially, produce the "white cloud of invisibility" and documents the author's own attempts to manifest the cloud. <p>These manifestations have a complex group of antecedents that include Lawrence Weiner's early spray-painted works, John Latham's <i>One Second Drawings</i>, Robert Irwin's luminous disc paintings of the 1960s and representations of the ineffable made by spiritualists and occultists.</p>
