'Polychromy & the History of Color' by Nik Papanikolaou
September's program is a (brief) look at the history of color itself, where we will be exploring color from the very first artworks to the colors of the Ancient World, their connection to rocks & minerals, and how science has essentially changed our understanding of the Ancient Greeks. We will be looking at some before and after photos of art reimagined, and discussing some of the more modern uses of pigments.
