Colourful Language: Red, White and Blue

Colourful Language: Red, White and Blue

This live HENI Talk, with Arts Society lecturer Alexandra Epps, explores the symbolism, significance and spirituality of the colours red, white and blue throughout the history of art, drawing upon the oeuvres of some of the most famous colourists. Experience the lustrous red of Pre-Raphaelite red hair; the cool white of Brueghel's snow; the secret power of Yves Klein's blue and Mondrian's dynamic combination of all three.
