Title:

Shades of Blue 25

Description:

Collection of artworks in shades of blue by Phil Epp, Sidney Nolan, Luis Jimenez, Ginette Beaulieu The assigning of symbolic meanings to colors is probably as old as symbolism itself. In fact, words are well adapted for description and the arousing of emotion, but for many kinds of precise thought other symbols are much better. (John B. S. Haldane). – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Newton's Blue Sky Sculpture
26
Newton's Blue Sky Sculpture is located in
Centennial Park
27
The sculpture has been designated one of the 8
Wonders of Kansas Art and was designed through
the joint efforts of artists Phil Epp, painter
and designer Terry Corbett, ceramist and
designer and Conrad Snider, ceramist and designer
28
  The sturdy, thick walled figures require six
months to dry and are fired twice for eight days
at a temperature of 2290 degrees Fahrenheit. The
Shino glaze with rich, dark accents from iron
oxide has been used for centuries by both Chinese
and Japanese ceramists. The figures are
intentionally abstract so that the observer can
assign them individual activity and identity
29
The colors appear most fluid and transparent
during midday sunlight and more intense on
overcast days and in the early evening hours. The
majestic cobalt glaze is similar to the glazes
first used by the Chinese around 1325 AD. The
large area of luminous blue in contrast with the
white clouds and the life-size stoneware figures
makes this a unique work of art
30
The sculpture invites the viewer to consider how
the natural Kansas sky and the art installation
work together. Viewers are encouraged to pause at
the viewing pad near the parking lot to watch the
movement of the natural sky against the
stationary cobalt-glazed tiles
