3 – Colour and Light
Although colours can only be perceived in connection with light, a combined colour and light theory has so far been lacking in the creative praxis. The project “Colour and Light – Materials for the Theory of Colour and Light” is about the praxis-relevant teaching of the experimental results in connection with the topic light and colour.
