\nDon’t confuse them. One is the beloved Supreme\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Court Justice. The other, with the flip of a letter, refers to the color wheel used in electronic media. Much as we hold dear the inimitable\u2014and, we hope, immortal\u2014Ruth Bader Ginsburg, RGB refers to the three colors that combine to produce the range of hues we see in electronic devices.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>For this curated <\/span>post we focus on <\/span>The Glorious RGB. In other words: <\/span><\/span>C <\/span>O<\/span> <\/span>L<\/span> <\/span>O<\/span> <\/span>R<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and all its variations of hue and saturation, tint and tone.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

\nVoluptuary,<\/i>\u00a02017, inflated vinyl, installation at Guest
\nSpot at the RE Institute, Baltimore<\/span><\/div>\n

\nWhile many images here feature paintings and works on paper, a number of other mediums step outside those parameters–sculpture, installation, and prints, as you can see in these opening images–as well as assemblage, light sculpture, cyanotype, photography, digital drawing, and work in fiber, cardboard, wax, and the detritus of family life. <\/span>Most of the works you see here are recent, but I encouraged artists to dip into their archive for their most chromatic expressions. Although abstraction prevails, there’s some fine\u00a0<\/span>representational work in the mix, including an homage to R.B.G. in RGB.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nPOW! For R.B.G.–Power and Love–Intermezzi #13,<\/i>\u00a02018; carbon pencil, gouache, charcoal pencil on paper; 5.5 x 8 inches<\/span><\/p>\n

\nWhat’s a post on RGB without R.B.G.? Yes, that’s the Justice, painted by the artist with her left hand, due to a right-shoulder injury that prevented her from using her dominant hand. Says Mon: “There was no attempt at a likeness, but I gave her the white
\nruff for her black gown. I was more interested in the color contrast–the red\/green duality–to help show her power. I was not conscious of this at
\nthe time, but made her head larger than the sun, perhaps to show her importance
\nto our world.”<\/span>
