The use of colour as something particularly expressive in itself has been unleashed in the past hundred and fifty years. Professor Elizabeth Legge – Chair of the Department of Art at the University of Toronto – will explore the way a number of artists, including Van Gogh, Gauguin, Monet, Matisse, Picasso, Kandinsky, Mondrian, Judd, Pollock, Warhol, Damien Hirst and Betty Woodman have used colour to very different ends in the modern period.
