COLOUR - Group Exhibition

A Mid-Winter Solstice preview on Tuesday 21 June introduces you to COLOUR – Group Exhibition at The Cape Galley, which officially opens on Sunday 26 June.

‘Interest in color springs straight from the soul and goes irresistibly to the soul of the viewer’– Eugène Delacroix 1798 – 1863, a French Romantic Artist.

The Cape Gallery invites you to join them in celebrating the Mid-Winter Solstice.

Mid Winter Solstice

Drummond Murphy

While form encompasses space, color calls upon our experience of space and time, stirring up emotions in us. Colour is analogous to music where the major keys are noted for joy and brilliance and the minor keys seem melancholy. As we scan a work of art the shifting focus of our attention carries us from one intensity to another. Color is not necessarily confined to form and edge but can be tempered by light as it is modulated fluidly across the surface of a painting, defining the ambient mood of the artwork
