This is apparent in the many and varied attempts to purge color, either by making it the property of some foreign bodythe oriental, the feminine, the infantile, the vulgar, or the pathologicalor by relegating it to the realm of the superficial, the supplementary, the inessential, or the cosmetic.

Writers have tended to look no further than the end of the 19th century.</p><p>David Batchelor seeks to go beyond the limits of earlier studies, analyzing the motivations behind chromophobia and considering the work of writers and artists who have been prepared to look at color as a positive value. Exploring a wide range of imagery including Melvilles Great White Whale, Huxleys Reflections on Mescaline, and Le Corbusiers Journey to the East, Batchelor also discusses the use of color in Pop, Minimal, and more recent art.</p><p>This brand-new audio edition is expressively narrated by Peter Coates.
