COLOR CHART : Reinventing Color 1950 to Today
March 25, 2008
MOMA is talking color. According to curator Ann Temkin, somewhere mid-century, artist began seeing color in a new way. With the advent of commercial paint in a myriad of standardized colors the artists pallet became available at the local hardware store. Pop art in a can. Pantone geek heaven.
Of course if you happen to be in Raleigh, NC rather than NYC you can stop by Designbox and see what a local artist does with actual paint chips from Lowes. (see left side. Trademark style of Shaun Richards).
Stumble it!

This theme is a seriously altered version of Cleaker, by Adam Cleaveland. I found it by going through the theme bank of Wordpress. I also periodically google “premium themes” to see what new is out there. We wanted a 3 column with both sidebars on the right side, and for it to be widget-ready (of course). We also wanted to be able to change our header. With all those restrictions, Cleaker was our favorite, and this is the hacked version of it. I have to admit, though, I’m about ready to go theme shopping and/or create a new one
.
thanks.
