Identify the color schemes in Mary Corse’s Untitled (White multiple inner band, beveled) and Jennifer Bartlett’s Path. Why do these artists choose their specific color schemes?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. In Untitled, Mary Corse creates a monochromatic color scheme by embedding tiny spheres of glass that reflect and enhance white paint.
2. The gradation of neutral hues produced by the white paint and glass spheres creates a balanced composition that also changes according to the movement of the viewer.
3. In Path, Jennifer Bartlett uses an analogous color scheme from the blue, blue-violet, and blue-green sectors of the color wheel.
4. The cool colors add harmony to the stone path and leaves portrayed in the composition.
