\"\"ANN ARBOR, MI:<\/strong> The A2AC (Ann Arbor Art Center) continues its 2023 gallery season with Wavelengths <\/em>in the Main Gallery and the Color Shop <\/em>in the A2AC Shop.<\/p>\n

Wavelengths<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Wavelengths <\/em>explores the art and science of color through the lens of 5 artists working in ceramics, neon, letterpress, glass, paper, and textiles. For thousands of years, artists and scientists have sought how the human eye perceives color in the natural world. Each has relied on the other’s experiments, secret knowledge, practices, and documented texts to build on what we know today about how humans see and comprehend color. Wavelengths\u00a0<\/em>considers five artists’ use of shape and repetition to create both simple and complex approaches to color.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnn Arbor\u2019s summers are always vibrant and festive. The A2AC Gallery mirrors this energy with a show featuring\u00a0playful work, full of color and form.\u201d – Thea Eck, Gallery Director<\/p>\n
