Work proposal:
The Albers project is mandatory for ApothekeS, and is conditional on remaining in a study group, that is, it is not an invitation but rather a call to study. During the next two months we will work on specific tasks that permeate the content of J. Albers' book in weekly meetings, and each participant will develop a final project with studies to be carried out outside of our weekly meeting. We encourage each participant to use the DAV studio on Monday afternoons, as well as the studio house in Lagoa.
We will study the sequence of contents as indicated in the schedule: values, intensity and luminosity, gradation, inverted backgrounds, transparency, addition and subtraction, axes that start from J. Albers' book. Also understanding the techniques that we have been developing until now such as collage and monotype.
About the project themes: each participant is invited to create and think about color in their creative process, and it is possible to enter the introduction to the pictorial process. However, the project must have a beginning, middle and end. The works must be conditioned to a sequence that will encompass the final elaboration of a pictorial work (regardless of the language).
To encourage the beginning of the creative process, each participant will receive a kit with 25 square-shaped wooden pieces. The kit can be used for the final project or for subsequent studies. Each participant must start from their own creative process and establish their poetics through color studies. The participants are encouraged to appropriate language (monotype, collage, encaustic, cyanotype, anthotype, suminagashi, among others).
First exercise: Values
A - develop a scale of values in the colors: white, black, red, yellow and blue. Pay attention to 11 different graduations. Set up a color scale (light/light and dark/shadow). Possibility of permanence and layer tests, with each color.
B - choose the composition and develop monotype studies using only one of the gradations. Pay attention to light and shadow. *It is suggested to take thin paper, the Apotheke does not have enough for everyone. This is because monotype printing will not always be perfect with high-grammage paper.
*printing can be done with a barem, wooden spoon and press.
