Abstract:

 This article examines the interdisciplinary potential between art and science through the reproduction of Wassily Kandinskys 1925 masterpiece Yellow-Red-Blue using the primary colors of paintCyan, Magenta, and Yellow CMY. The research aims to bridge the gap between traditional artistic expression and scientific methodology in a way that informs and enhances both art creation and art education through contemporary color theory. Kandinskys original Yellow-Red-Blue masterpiece uses Red, Yellow, and Blue RYB to symbolize the vibrancy and emotional depth achievable through color contrasts and harmonies. In contrast, this studys reproduction using CMY aims to uncover new perspectives on color interactions, perception, and educational values. The research quantitatively evaluates changes in hue, saturation, and brightness when RYB is replaced with CMY, utilizing a methodological approach based on scientific color knowledge, including the color spectrum and comparative analysis. The reproduction process is documented to assess the impact of these color changes on the viewers perceptual and emotional experience. The findings of the research are expected to contribute to a deeper understanding of Kandinskys techniques and the theoretical foundations of color use in art. Additionally, the findings are integrated into the STEAM education framework, which promotes pedagogical approaches where art and science dynamically interact.

 Bu makale, Wassily Kandinskynin 1925 başyapıtı Sarı-Kırmızı-Mavinin boya ana renkleri olan Cyan, Magenta ve Sarı CMY kullanılarak yeniden üretilmesi yoluyla sanat ve bilim arasındaki disiplinlerarası potansiyeli incelemektedir. Araştırma, çağdaş renk teorisi aracılığıyla hem sanat yaratımını hem de sanat eğitimini bilgilendirip geliştirecek şekilde, geleneksel sanatsal ifade ile bilimsel metodoloji arasındaki boşluğu kapatmayı amaçlamaktadır. Kandinskynin orijinal Sarı-Kırmızı-Mavi eserinde Kırmızı, Sarı ve Mavi RYB kullanımı; renk karşıtlıkları ve uyumları aracılığıyla ulaşılabilecek canlılık ve duygusal derinliği simgelemektedir. Buna karşın, bu çalışmanın CMY ile gerçekleştirdiği röprodüksiyonu; renk etkileşimleri, algı ve eğitimsel değerler üzerine yeni bakış açıları ortaya çıkarmayı hedeflemektedir. Bu araştırma renk spektrumu ve karşılaştırmalı analiz de dahil olmak üzere, bilimsel renk bilgisini temel alan metodolojik bir yaklaşım kullanarak, RYBnin CMY ile değiştirilmesi durumunda renk tonu, doygunluk ve parlaklıkta meydana gelen değişiklikleri niceliksel olarak değerlendirmektedir. Reprodüksiyon süreci, bu renk değişikliklerinin izleyicinin algısal ve duygusal deneyimi üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirmek için belgelenmiştir. Araştırmada elde edilen bulguların, Kandinskynin tekniklerine ve sanatta renk kullanımının teorik temellerine dair daha derin bir anlayışa katkıda bulunması beklenmektedir. Ek olarak, bulgular sanat ve bilimin dinamik bir şekilde etkileşime girdiği pedagojik yaklaşımları teşvik eden STEAM eğitim çerçevesine entegre edilmiştir.
