My first trip to Albi came in 22001, with my college girlfriend, and I found a bustling, jewel-like city that took its ochre-red color from bricks that had been used since the Middle Ages and echoed the hot, meridional sun.

"For thousands of years in the West, red was the only color worthy of that name, the only true color," Pastoureau begins, noting the naturally-occurring pigments like red ochre in the Lascaux cave paintings as among the first colors used in art.

"Skylit Loftspace NYC (seated)" (2015), a view of the artist's studio, of which there are several in the exhibition, is less dramatic, though Downes manages to extract a full spectrum, ranging from middle-tone blues to milky washes that confess to the ochre ground beneath.

Advertise on Hyperallergic with Nectar Ads KOYA, Iraqi Kurdistan — The eastern approach to the Kurdish town of Koya descends down a narrow two-lane highway that carves through a valley of endless sideways slices of brown and ochre, pocked with stubborn brush and spindly oaks.

Amid peaceful olive groves and ochre fields grazed by horses and sheep sits a house-size sculpture of a sphinx, with mirrored blue hair and a bright-red crown, a flower blooming on one of her breasts and a lavender heart on the nipple of the other.

The pigment was used for a variety of purposes, but samples were likely made mostly for "symbolic activities," the researchers write, such as cave or body painting; some ochre pieces even appear to be ground to a point at one end, as if they were once used like crayons.

In following his journey — from New York's subways to the Parisian catacombs and from Australian ochre mines to the prehistoric caves of the French Pyrenees — it soon becomes clear that Hunt is less interested in what he actually finds underground than in his own obsession with this dark world.

Everyone whose job it is to make jokes about current events was handed a gift on the weekend: A photo of Donald Trump's famously ochre-hued face framed by a startlingly wide border of his actual skin colour, his hair blown back in the wind, as stark as his corrupt conduct.

Swaggering, curved lines from beneath are held in check by streaming, blurred, white horizontals with blurred black verticals on top; and if that were not enough to disquiet the soul, Scully marches forth with another layer of ochre and pink striations at indeterminate intervals, seamlessly putting each of them in place.

A teacher and researcher at the University of Washington for 36 years, Dr. Paine propounded his keystone theory in 20133 after studying ochre starfish, or sea stars, as they preyed on the mussel population along the rocky shore of Makah Bay, on the tip of the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State.

The researchers described ochre pigment that produced a bright-red color, which could have been used for body painting or other symbolic expression, and tools fashioned from obsidian, a volcanic rock that yields extremely sharp blades, that contrasted with clunkier ones used by earlier species in the human evolutionary lineage.

A group of European Paleoscientists just published a report suggesting that the low-ceilinged Porc-Epic cave, a site in in eastern Ethiopia, operated as a production site for powdered ochre pigment for at least 4,500 years, making it the earliest and longest-running art supply store in recorded history.

According to a new study by a group of European archaeologists, published in the journal PLOS ONE, the 40,000-year-old Porc-Epic Cave in eastern Ethiopia served as a site for the continuous production of ochre powder — which prehistoric people often used for paint — for at least 4,500 years.

The pronounced use of black, which acts as a band that begins on the top edge, travels down the right side and terminates as a border surrounding the orange/blue square, might be indicative of encroaching dread, but it doesn't unbalance the painting's Apollonian relationships of green, yellow, white, blue, orange, ochre and brown.

His face is hidden by one of them, with only his ear, neck, and hair visible, while the canvas itself, graphically rendered in black on ochre, could have fallen straight out of the still life-cum-cityscape, "The Evil Genius of a King," in which de Chirico uses the same colors to paint a tilted tabletop.

"The choice of importing the ochre from a distance rather than using a more common local material which accomplishes the same purpose argues that having a red face or hair or clothing or weapons also carried a symbolic message of some sort," said paleoanthropologist Alison Brooks of George Washington University and the museum's Human Origins Program.

With both archeologists and scientists in tow, Traditional Owners dug up 3.3 metres of sediment, uncovering a host of "firsts" including: hafted tools (objects with two joined parts) made around 38,000 years ago; bone tools dating back 40,000 years ago; and red ochre and white gypsum pigments (used in art and dance to this day) from 49,000 and 40,000 years ago, respectively.

Ms. Miller vividly remembers receiving the phone call in August 2017 from David Van Auker, an antiques store owner in Silver City, N.M. He had bought "Woman-Ochre" from the estate of Jerry and Rita Alter, not recognizing it as a de Kooning, let alone as stolen property, until he put it on display and some customers took immediate interest.
