GOETHE_harmonia entre cores segundo a sua luminosidade/ harmony among colours in accordance to their lightness

Goethe estabeleceu no seu "Theory of Colours" que cada cor tinha a sua luminosidade, graduando-as em números de acordo com a sua intensidade: amarelo 9, laranja 8, vermelho 6, verde 6, azul 4, violeta 3. Mais tarde, Johannes Itten no seu "Art of Color" aplicou esta teoria com o objectivo de obter uma harmonia na proporção entre áreas de cor. 


Os alunos deviam procurar/criar situações reais nas quais esta harmonia estivesse presente e capturá-las através de fotografia digital.
