About the book

Colour & Poetry publication documents Colour & Poetry: A Symposium III 19th – 22nd March 2021, a cross- and inter-disciplinary four-day event held by the Slade School of Fine Art, in celebration of International Colour Day, World Poetry Day and World Pigment Day. As with previous years the symposium hosted a range of over 50 speakers representing the arts and humanities, science and industry, drawing upon knowledge from within and outside of the UCL community, who spoke on colour and its surrounding research interspersed with poetry readings, performances and practical workshops. For the first time we held the symposium and exhibition on-line reaching a worldwide audience. The publication was funded by UCL’s Higher Education Innovation Fund (HEIF), managed by UCL Innovation & Enterprise and a grant from NERC.

The annual symposium £5 print and other associated works will be available to purchase during the event.
