After reading this book, color feels like the mastermind criminal orchestrating entire heists in full view, yet somehow always eluding capture. Color is complicit in every level of the artwork, yet its devious power is maddeningly aloof or discounted in importance. Even for color nuts like myself, the book opens up fresh ways of seeing art and design.
