Description - Yves Klein by Daniel Franco

Yves Klein was the first retrospective in Latin America dedicated to this major point of reference in twentieth-century art, a pioneer of the action art and immaterial practices that characterise contemporary art. Through a review of Yves Klein's short but prolific career -from the objects and monochromes of the blue period, sustained in the conception of International Klein Blue as an immaterial field, to the relationship between painting and action through the series of Anthropometries - this volume delves into his aesthetic proposals regarding the value of and condition for the work of art and its infinite possibilities of material production. SELLING POINTS: . The first Latin American retrospective of one of the major artists of the postwar period. . This book presents the objects and monochromes of Yves Klein's blue period and examines the relationship between painting and action. . The book is the first general overview of the artist's work to be published in Mexico. 174 images
