Call for Papers:
The Color within the framework of the artistic, architectural and landscape project
Color Culture and Science Journal
http://jcolore.gruppodelcolore.it/
Deadline July 31st, 2016
Colour is
a psychophysical experience of the observer. The measurement
and the study of colour require specific multi-disciplinary
skills. Among the most important applications of colorimetry
in the cultural heritage field the following are listed:
non-destructive analysis (color study and monitoring over
time); choice of the best lighting conditions; and
classification / identification of materials in
archaeological, architectural, and urban contexts. For this
reason the choice of the measuring conditions is often
dictated by experts from different fields.
This Call wants to contribute to the multidisciplinary
discussion on the measurement of colour in cultural heritage,
focusing on: a) technologies and devices used for the study of
colour in the preservation of historical and artistic
heritage, b) colour design in architectural and landscape
contexts and c) the relationship between instrumentally
detected data and colour perception. Submissions focused on
intervention methods and working approaches are particularly
encouraged. Papers on the following topics will be especially
welcome:
• joint experiences among different disciplines
• testing of new instrumental survey methodologies in support
of perceptual evaluations
• special and unconventional experiences on the use or
application of instrumental data
