Catalogue Note
"I like the color and I like the quality of cadmium red light. And then also, I thought for a color it had the light value for a three-dimensional object. If you paint something black or any dark color, you can't tell what its edges are like. If you paint it white, it seems small and purist. And the red, other than a gray of that value, seems to be the only color that really makes an object sharp and defines its contours and angles."
