However with the snippet below I see the default black with MPcolor and the wanted red with \MPvar. Thus?

\starttext \startuseMPgraphic{example1}{color} pickup pencircle scaled 1mm; draw unitsquare scaled 1cm withcolor \MPcolor{color};

This is looking for a color named 'color'. You need \MPcolor{\MPvar{color}}.

\stopuseMPgraphic \startuseMPgraphic{example2}{color} pickup pencircle scaled 1mm; draw unitsquare scaled 1cm withcolor \MPvar{color}; \stopuseMPgraphic \useMPgraphic{example1}{color=red} \useMPgraphic{example2}{color=red} \stoptext
