Yves Klein - Profile

The sky so close - we feel towards the images of Yves Klein. In his preoccupation with the elements dedicated to the artist, 1928 in Nice (France) was born and died in 1962 in Paris, especially the air and sky. Own, he also developed the International Klein Blue (IKB), a dark ultramarine blue, which he patented lies. In his large monochrome canvases that color seems to us to absorb, a mystical and charming effect, sometimes also in IKB soaked sponges reinforced. In his Anthropometrics he turns from this monochrome, abstract images from: Like a literally nudes best of his female models with International Klein Blue and press against or wallow on canvases. The performance is anticipated Taking Physical representational but without clearly visible to be. Abstract representationalism. Likewise, he experimented with later cannon fire and rain for the creation of his paintings. His interest was also against the architecture does not stop and he dealt with the so-called "Air Architecture", an architecture consisting of ephermen materials such as air, fire and water should be. He was co-founder of the group of `New Realists'. ArtLogistics ©
