This exhibition is entitled "Remarks on Color" after the title of the well-known treatise on color written in 1950-1953 by philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein. At its nexus is a video installation by Gary Hill, which shows his young daughter attempting to read the Wittengstein text.

The idea of the exhibition is to explore the singular and complex relationships that artists have with color.
