''Who's Afraid of Red, Yellow and Blue'' is a series of four large-scale paintings by Barnett Newman painted between 1966 and 1970. Two of them have been the subject of vandalistic attacks in museums. The series' name was a reference to ''Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?'', the play by Edward Albee which had premiered in 1962, which was in itself a reference to ''Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?'', the 1933 song immortalized in Disney cartoons. Barnett Newman started the first painting in the series without a preconceived notion of the subject or end result; he only wanted it to be different from what he had done until then, and to be asymmetrical. But after having painted the canvas red, he was confronted with the fact that only the other primary colours yellow and blue would work with it; this led to an inherent confrontation with the works of De Stijl and especially Piet Mondriaan, who had in the opinion of Newman turned the combination of the three colors into a didactic idea instead of a means of expression in freedom. ==''Who's Afraid of Red, Yellow and Blue I''== This 1966 oil on canvas measures 190 by 122 cm, making it the smallest of the four. It was dedicated to Jasper Johns. It was the subject of a 2006 installation by Robert Irwin at the Pace Gallery,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.artnet.com/galleries/exhibitions.asp?gid=826&cid=111807 )〕 and also the centerpiece of the 2007 exhibition ''Who's afraid of red, yellow and blue?: Positionen der Farbfeldmalerei'' in the Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden. It is held in a private collection.
