In a continuum of luminance from complete darkness to pure white, the rst logi-

cal color frequencies are red and orange hues.

The logical answer to the question After white black and gray, what would be

the next logical color? would presumably be a unanimous--RED. Red has a wide-

range of cultural associations, and what it may connote, e.g. life and death (when

mixed with black), love and affection (pink) when mixed with white, and myriad

other meanings. But regardless of those metaphors, black, white and red have

become a way of removing decisions about color and concentrating on form.

Vectorized object using photographs of an actual

object, in this case a cast iron shoe-shine stand,

painted red. The stand is the readymade, and the

print is a derivation as a visual pun as the stand

is red in color.

In aerial views of parking lots one typically sees car

colors that are some shade of black, shades of gray,

silvers, and various shades of red. Shades of blue still

exist but are less common. The gamut of car paint

colors in the 1960s and 1970s was somewhat more

varied, with bright yellows, greens and purples, but

the range was still primarily the black, white and red

shades.
