Placing Color Panel Discussion

For the panel discussion of the Placing Color exhibit, the speakers were professors of different majors - Art History, Psychology, Sociology and Anthropology, Physics and Philosophy. The psychology professor raised the question, "Why do we create color?" The sociology and anthropology professor talked about the space in the paintings and how we experience the world. The physics teacher talked about unseen colors and wavelengths and how a rainbow is sorted in space by color and how this is related to how we sort color. The philosophy professor talked about our movement within the world and how we experience color.
