What was Patrick Heron's focus in 'Cadmium with Violet, Scarlet, Emerald, Lemon and Venetian'?
Heron was obsessed with the way different colors interact at their boundaries. In this 1969 work, he explored how saturated hues can create a sense of light and space without using traditional perspective.
Why are these specific colors significant in Heron's 1969 period?
By 1969, Heron moved toward 'wobbly' shapes and intense color fields. These specific pigments—like Cadmium and Venetian red—were chosen for their unique weight and how they visually advance or recede.
