Color y Significado

Is color just a psychological reaction, or a pure physical sensation? Does it have an effect on our feelings or moods? John Gage examines the phenomenon of color from a new and extraordinary perspective, convinced that, like language, it is a historically determined fact whose meaning resides in the various contexts in which it is experienced and interpreted. Thus, his erudite research—illustrated with more than one hundred images, thirty-seven of them in color—covers topics as diverse as optical mixtures in a technique such as mosaic, the medieval symbology of colors, the syntax of colors and their uses in Latin America at the time of the conquest, the early history of optics and the prism, or the ideas about color in the work of Goethe and Runge, Blake and Turner or Seurat and Matisse. A text full of ideas, as essential as it is enjoyable.

Estudio Laterna is an interdisciplinary design space based in Ibiza that integrates landscape architecture with a strong artistic approach. The studio was founded in 2004 by Andrea Sánchez and Ricardo Jarpa. The landscape architectural designs are led by Andrea with a team of landscape architects, biologists and artists. The application of the designs is directed by Ricardo with a team of professional gardeners and artisans. Together they create an alternative form of landscape architectural practice that unites design and exploration, pushing boundaries, connecting nature and its realms, speaking the ever evolving language of the more-than-human. This intertwining was the leitmotif that also inspired them to create Estudio Laterna Art Gallery, a nest of art in the heart of Ibiza island, manifesting a new perspective for local communities and international artists. Estudio Laterna is also developing other creative projects such as Kossmun, an experimental outdoor furniture brand.
