Synchromism
シンクロミズム / 1912–1918 / Style / Geometric Abstraction
음악의 화성을 본떠 색 자체를 구조로 삼겠다고 한, 미국에서 나온 최초의 추상 운동. 스펙트럼 순서로 배치된 색면이 회전하며 깊이를 낳고, 형태는 색을 뒤따른다. ‘싱크로미(색의 교향)’라는 작품명이 그대로 강령이었다.
스펙트럼 순으로 늘어선 색면 / 소용돌이치는 구성 / 색으로 만들어내는 깊이 / 음악에 빗댄 제목
사전 항목
- 적합한 용도
- Colour systems for music platforms, festivals and audio hardware, which need chromatic energy and have no imagery to lean on · Motion graphics in which hue rotation rather than the movement of objects carries depth and rhythm
- 타이포그래피
- A geometric sans in one weight, set small; the title names the piece and the colour does the speaking.
- 구성
- A spiral of overlapping planes around a slightly displaced centre, warm hues advancing and cool receding, with no drawn outline anywhere.
- 재료
- Saturated unmixed pigment at even opacity, so no plane comes forward merely because it is denser than its neighbour.
- 주의
- Adding a keyline to hold the shapes together: as soon as an outline carries the structure, colour stops doing the work and the whole premise is void.
- 더 읽을거리
- The theory of Macdonald-Wright and Russell / The dispute with Orphism over simultaneity / Tables of correspondence between colour and music
