Rise to Art News DFW’s latest challenge to artists:
ORANGE Challenge
Americans perceive orange as a positive, cheerful color. It’s often the color of bountiful harvests in American realism, but at Halloween, it’s just spooky. In Ireland and the Ukraine, contemporary political movements associate the color orange with change. In Asia, orange is used to symbolize love.
- Black and Violet, Wassily Kandinsky 1923
- Interior, William Rothenstein, oil on canvas 1891
- The Japanese Book, William Merritt Chase c.1900
