Deutsches Farbzentrum

A German colour prize for an Argovian colour artist

This phone call came as a great surprise to me. I was astonished and very moved by this unexpected success. I was invited to attend the award ceremony of the prestigious German Farbenzentrum in Berlin on 6 October 2012.

Karl-Miescher Award is given for outstanding achievements in the field of «science and colour design». At the international conference «Im Medium Farbe», I gave the closing speech titled: COLOR YELLOW – saffron, urine and arsenic / FARBE GELB – Safran, Urin und Arsen.
