Just like “Colors”, “Numbers” was originally published in 1945 too. Once again, its graphic refinement makes this book an art project in itself, much more than a mere children’s book.
I count from zero to ten with the fingers and with abstract compositions made of coloured shapes scattered on a black background and black & white squares tidily ranged on a white background. A journey from abstract to concrete that gradually reveals through the pages.
Lastly, two pages of “abstract additions”: number 10 is obtained with every possible combination of numbers by the use of colours.
