With 200+ Artworks, ‘Rainbow Dreams’ Revels in the Vast Creativity of the Color Spectrum
From Do Ho Suh’s ethereal architecture to Kimsooja’s irridescent mirrors to Lauren Halsey’s fringed tapestry, a new book from Monacelli celebrates a broad spectrum of light and color. Rainbow Dreams features more than 200 installations, sculptures, paintings, photographs, and more that revel in the possibilities of pigment. Bound in a smooth gradient that extends to the pages’ edges, this vivid survey is a celebratory, playful object in itself.
Rainbow Dreams features numerous artists previously featured on Colossal, from Nina Chanel Abney and Nick Cave to DRIFT and Katharina Grosse, among many others. The book is slated for release on April 2, and you can pre-order your copy in the Colossal Shop.
