In the series of her monotypes "Color Contrasts", Maria Wallenstål-Schoenberg declines the color in its contrasts, the warm-cold contrast - where, as with gray, it is also about the finest temperature differences -, the brightness contrast - such as with the blue tones - , the complementary contrast – like red/green – , the colorful-in-itself-contrast – like orange to red -, the quality contrast – like the muted red and blue tones – as well as the simultaneous contrast, i.e. the direct interaction of the colors in relation to the perception of quantity. In an open, undogmatic way, the pictures try out the basic contrasts of color set up by Johannes Itten. | text: dr Angelica Burger
