Phlox Red Toner (Eosine) c. 27 - 41

Editor: So, this is "Phlox Red Toner (Eosine)" by Imperial Paper & Color Corp. It's… well, a jar of red pigment. It’s so ordinary, yet the stark presentation gives it an odd beauty. What’s your take? Curator: It's a ready-made, really, a bit Duchampian in its celebration of the mundane. But look closer. Color is emotion; even a manufactured pigment evokes feeling. What does "red" stir in you? Passion? Fury? The very pulse of life, perhaps? Editor: Huh. I hadn't considered the emotional side of pigment itself. Very cool.
