The concept of 'variation' described by Josef Albers for the development of his educational methodology and extendedin his reference work Interaction of color, shows a ligature to the construction process of Anni Albers' textile reticle.It is a rigid support where it turns out physically impossible to mix colours. It is for this reason that Anni Albers research on weaving color is realized from highly stimulant resources.
