We use colors to describe our emotions: we feel green with envy, red with anger, or on a sad day, blue. This publication examines the work of four artists who employ color and form to represent a metaphorical body: In Roy McMakin’s wood sculpture a chair is at once a body and an implication of an absent body. Kathy Butterly’s evocative use of glaze transforms her ceramic sculptures into miniature bodies. In Felix Gonzalez-Torres’s sculptures, piles of wrapped candy and plastic-bead curtains are experienced through a literal touch, privileging a sensory experience. Sue Williams’ riotously colorful paintings explore an abstracted body represented entirely through color. The publication combines images by the four artists with poems by twenty-two contemporary poets who further explore color through rhythm, meter and rhyme.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003eExhibition schedule: \u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"st1\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags\" \/\u003e\u003cst1:PlaceType w:st=\"on\"\u003eInstitute\u003c\/st1:PlaceType\u003e of \u003cst1:PlaceName w:st=\"on\"\u003eContemporary Art\u003c\/st1:PlaceName\u003e, \u003cst1:place w:st=\"on\"\u003e\u003cst1:City w:st=\"on\"\u003eBoston\u003c\/st1:City\u003e\u003c\/st1:place\u003e, February 17–\u003cst1:date w:st=\"on\" ls=\"trans\" Month=\"5\" Day=\"20\" Year=\"2012\"\u003eMay 20, 2012\u003c\/st1:date\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44873330163976,"sku":"9783775733304","price":29.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775733304_d4df9778-704a-45fa-90f4-5b076b0c1e73.jpg?v=1744063192","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/17094-figuring-colorkathy-butterly-felix-gonzaleztorres-roy-mcmakin-sue-williams","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
