'Khroma, the Emotional Universe of Color' at the Carmen Thyssen Museum

'Khroma, the Emotional Universe of Color' at the Carmen Thyssen Museum

Until January 7, 2024, the Carmen Thyssen Museum in Andorra exhibits the temporary exhibition Khroma, the Emotional Universe of Color curated by Guillermo Cervera. According to Cervera "with this exhibition we give meaning to these sensations that colors transmit to us and show visitors how chromaticism affects them emotionally during their visit to the exhibition" and adds that "in this exhibition you can detect synergies between Francesc Masriera and Antonio de Felipe, with more than a hundred years of difference in the execution of each work, or the one achieved between Antonio de Madrazo and Mercedes Lasarte, Figari and Almaraz, Torres García and Saura, or the Crónica Team and Ernst Wilhelm Nay, they allow us to see how, in art, time is a relative factor."

This exhibition is divided into six sections which are: Dark Colors, The nocturnity and the mystery of dark colors; Red, a multifaceted color; Polychromy, synonymous with modernity; Orange, The philosopher's stone of colors; Green, The poisonous color of luck; Blue, the color of the universe contained in blue.
