Cadmium Yellow 

Editor: Here we have "Cadmium Yellow" by F. Weber & Company, Inc., a jar of pure pigment. It’s fascinating to see the raw material of art presented so plainly. What is the significance of displaying pigment in this way? Curator: Consider how color itself carries cultural weight. Yellow, across history, has signified joy, enlightenment, but also caution, even cowardice. This jar isn't just pigment; it's a vessel of accumulated meanings, waiting to be unleashed by the artist. The Weber company connects this pigment to the American art market and the availability of art supplies. Editor: So, it's more than just yellow. It's history and emotion in a jar. Curator: Precisely. The jar holds the potential for visual storytelling, its cultural memory waiting to be activated.
