Black to Black - Black from the ceiling is a hot wire and should be switched Red to Blue - Red wire is another hot wire and should also be switched White to White - White from the ceiling is the neutral and should not be switched. Your wall should have two switches, one will control the red wire, one will control the black wire.

Trying to install an IKEA light The light has black white and 2 yellow and green striped wires Ceiling box has 2 black 2 red and white wire Room has 2 switches What should connect to what?
Connect the black wire from the ceiling box to the black wire on the light. Connect the white wire from the ceiling box to the white wire on the light. The yellow and green striped wires from the light are likely the ground wires, secure these to the green or bare copper wire in the ceiling box. Cap off or tape the red wires from the ceiling box, as they are likely for a separate function and are not needed for the light fixture.
