There's a rainbow of ways to think about colors. Colors pop and shine.
Cool colors make us shiver, while warm colors heat us up. They can even
express our moods, from feeling blue to being tickled pink. What Can Colors Do? introduces children to color through vibrant artworks that inspire curiosity, joy, and surprise in young learners.
Colorful
paintings, sculptures, and objects from the Philadelphia Museum of Art
help children think about how artists use color. How can colors express
feelings? Can a color be loud or soft? As children learn the basics of
color theory, from mixing to contrast and color wheels, they answer
engaging, thoughtful questions that bring the world of art and their own
experiences together.
A series of activities for kids to
complete on their own-from a scavenger hunt to a color-inspired way to
meditate-helps them to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the hues
around us.
