Abstract

At the close of their searching critique, Saunders & van Brakel raise, but do not address, the question: “Whither colour research?” There are two distinct traditions of colour research, one based on disembodied coloured lights and another on surface colour. The coherence and integrity of both these traditions are challenged by the nonautonomy of colour.
