A metà degli anni '50 Yves Klein (1928-1962) annunciò che "un mondo nuovo richiedeva un uomo nuovo". Forte del suo stile idiosincratico e del suo carisma, questo artista intraprese una carriera breve ma intensa, realizzando più di 1000 dipinti nell'arco di sette anni, opere considerate oggi come capisaldi del modernismo postbellico. Klein si guadagnò la celebrità soprattutto grazie alle sue tele monocromatiche dipinte nella tonalità di blu da lui stesso brevettato. L'International Klein Blue (IKB), ottenuto da pigmento puro e materiale legante, al contempo corposo e luminoso, evocativo e decorativo, venne concepito da Klein come mezzo per esprimere il mondo immateriale e infinito. Le opere appartenenti a questa "epoca blu" sembrano trasportarci in un'altra dimensione, ipnotizzati da un perfetto cielo d'estate. Klein viene anche ricordato per i suoi "pennelli viventi", donne nude e cosparse di International Klein Blue che lasciavano impronte del corpo su enormi fogli di carta. Questa introduzione Basic Art raccoglie i lavori principali di Klein per presentare un artista che è anche uomo dello spettacolo, inventore e pioniere della performance art. Le pagine offrono una guida concisa a un maestro dell'arte moderna e uno spunto di riflessione sull'incredibile effetto che un solo colore può avere su di noi.

Nissa la Bella, een ode aan Nice

Nice, mijn 2e woonplek. Nissa la Bella, in het Niçoise dialect. Klopt helemaal! Parijs in 't klein op z'n Italiaans. Kleur, architectuur, kunst, ambiance, zon en een rijke geschiedenis. Deze week in TOOS&ART een ode aan Nissa la Bella. #art #kunst #expo

Een paar jaar geleden kocht ik bij een rommelzaakje in Nice een heerlijk protserig ovalen lijstje. Handgesneden en natuurlijk verguld. Daar móést een schilderijtje in: ‘Nissa la Bella’. Eigenlijk een soort zelfportret, die vrouw die vanuit zo’n echt Niçoise lijst vanaf een terras staat uit te kijken over ‘mijn Nice’. Het 19e eeuwse Nice. Net zo heerlijk protserig en verguld als die lijst. Gewoon…

June 20, 2022 The body at play A brief history of performance P.3

International Klein Blue, does it ring a bell? Three trends that mark European performances of the 20th century: mythologisation of the artists by themselves, politicisation of art, and sanctification of a human body in the world where two devastating world wars left nothing sacred. This post will cover the contribution of the French artist Yves Klein (told you, our lecturer managed to cover A LOT). 

Yves Klein Sitting at a beach with his friends, Yves Klein claimed the sky to be his own - which later will turn out to be a life-long obsession. He created his own colour  - the International Klein Blue (IKB) - that he would later use to draw his monochrome paintings. He also used gold and pink for his monochromes like in his Ex-Voto dedicated to Saint Rita de Cascia (1961) where blue symbolises God, gold symbolises the Father, and pink symbolises the Holy Spirit (see below).

He used naked models as brushes to create the Anthropometries - engaging the models with the work in a process of co-creation. The Anthropometries signigy both the paintings and the processes of creation - the most famous one that took place in the  Galérie International d'Art Contemporain in 1960.

On a clear night in March at ten pm sharp a crowd of one hundred people, all dressed in black tie attire, came to the Galerie International d'Art Contemporain in Paris. The event was the first conceptual piece to be shown at this gallery by their new artist Mr. Yves Klein. The gallery was one of the finest in Paris.      Mr. Klein in a black dinner jacket proceeded to conduct a ten piece orchestra in his personal composition of The Monotone Symphony, which he had written in 1949. This symphony consisted of one note.       Three models appeared, all with very beautiful naked bodies. They were then conducted as was the full orchestra by Mr. Klein. The music began. The models then rolled themselves in the blue paint that had been placed on giant pieces of artist paper - the paper had been carefully placed on one side of the galleries' wall and floor area - opposite the full orchestra. Everything was composed so breathtakingly beautifully. The spectacle was surely a metaphysical and spiritual event for all. This went on for twenty minutes. When the symphony stopped it was followed by a strict twenty minutes of silence, in which everyone in the room willingly froze themselves in their own private meditation space.       At the end of Yves' piece everyone in the audience was fully aware they had been in the presence of a genius at work, the piece was a huge success! Mr. Klein triumphed. It would be his greatest moment in art history, a total success.       The spectacle had unquestionable poetic beauty, and Mr. Kleins' last words that night were, "THE MYTH IS IN ART".

“Le saut dans le vide” is a performance of a ‘leap into the void’ captured in a picture. Thanks to photo manipulations it looks as if the artist was about to take off from the wall and pursue the immaterial.

The “saut dans le vide”, a now iconic performance, was executed on October 19 on Rue Gentil-Bernard in Fontenay-aux-Roses, a suburb south-west of Paris where the artist regularly trained in judo. Yves Klein leaps from a pillar at the entrance of a pavilion, his face turned towards the sky, his arms crossed. Far from falling, the artist takes off. The street is empty, except for a cyclist passing by in the bottom right of the photograph. The fact that a man is hanging mid-air does not cause him to stop or even turn his head.
