In the mid-1950s, Yves Klein declared that a new world calls for a new man. With his idiosyncratic style and enormous charisma, this daring artist continued a short but rich career creating more than 1,000 paintings over seven years, now considered a pillar of postmodernism. Klein's work was characterized by large black-and-white canvases painted with his own patented shade of blue, which we know today as Klein Blue. He wanted to create a blue revolution, to evoke the world's innocence and draw us into another dimension, like a summer sky. This coffee table book, Yves Klein - Basic Art range, presents Klein's work and demonstrates the effects you can create with a single color.
