Yves Klein Sold at Auction Prices

Painter, Sculptor, b. 1928 - d. 1962

(b Nice, France, April 28, 1928; d Paris, June 6, 1962) French painter. Klein wanted the viewer to undergo both a revelation of the senses and the mind in front of the intense blue field of his paintings. He believed that through meditation of the material, he could release the individual from the confines of the worldly and into the realm of transcendent experience. Blue was for Klein the color of the infinite and of the void - a color "beyond dimensions." He even gave his extreme tone of blue a patented trademark - International Klein Blue (IKB) - mixing the pure ultramarine with a synthetic resin so that it retained its powdery consistency and true brilliance. Klein selected gold, red, and especially the IKB, as colors that came closest to his vision of the immaterial and the infinite. With his monochromatic language, Klein aimed to stimulate independent sensations in the viewer, emancipated from the anchor of depiction. In this he fused the dual meaning of 'painting' (the application of pigment as opposed to the depiction of something); paint became the painting's subject.* If all this sounds somewhat esoteric, then it will come as no surprise that Klein was well initiated in the philosophies of Zen Buddhism, and had in fact initially begun his career as a promising judo champion. It was while working in a frame shop in London at the age of 22 in 1949 however that he first discovered the possibilities of monochrome painting. "I have found it!" he proclaimed, showing off some small monochrome gouaches to his amused friends. At last here was, "a means of painting that was against painting, against all the anxieties of life, against everything. It was creation, and creation was health." This revelation would dictate the rest of Klein's short career.** (Credit: *Christie’s, New York, Post War and Contemporary Art Evening Sale, May 14, 2003, lot 39; **Christie’s, London, June 30, 1999, lot 552)

Das goldfarbene Monochrome glänzend und strahlend, die beiden Farbserigraphien prachtvolle, satt-pulvrige Drucke von intensiver und leuchtender Farbigkeit. Das goldfarbene Monochrome wurde von Yves Klein mit Blattgold appliziert und stellt eine unikatäre Variante dar. Ausstellungs-Katalog des Museum Haus Lange, Krefeld, 1961. - Hg. Kaiser Wilhelm Museum, Krefeld 1961. - Der Katalog zur allerersten deutschen Gesamtausstellung des Künstlers, die gleichzeitig seine erste institutionelle Ausstellung war. Sie sollte bis zu Yves Kleins Tod 1962, nur ein Jahr später, die einzige öffentlich museale Ausstellung zu Lebzeiten des Künstlers bleiben. - Yves Kleins Interesse an Farben und Farbwirkung ist essentiell und werkbestimmend. Der Künstler war überzeugt, dass das Wesen der Kunst in der reinen Farbe liegt und der Auffassung, dass in Zukunft nur noch farbmonochrome Werke in der Kunst geschaffen würden. Die primäre Erfahrung beruhte für Klein auf der unmittelbareren Wahrnehmung der Farbe und hatte eine deutlich theologische Komponente, sollte jedoch auch im Kontext einer abgewandelten Farbtrias der Grundfarben Rot, Blau und Gelb betrachtet werden, als ein Symbolverständnis Kleins, dass den Farben auch eine metaphysische, profane Bedeutung beimaß. Klein verknüpfte die Bedeutung miteinander, wenn er sagt: "Für mich ist jede Nuance einer Farbe gewissermaßen ein Individuum, ein Wesen von derselben Art wie die Grundfarbe, aber mit einem Charakter und einer persönlichen, klar erkennbaren Seele. " (Zit. n.: Banai, Nuit: Vom Mythos der Objekthaftigkeit zur Ordnung des Raums: Yves Kleins Abenteuer in der Leere. In: Yves Klein - Ausstellungskatalog der Schirn. Frankfurt/Main, 2004. S.30.) Die reine Farbe war für Klein aufgeladen mit Bedeutung, insbesondere war sie Ausdruck seiner tiefen Verbundenheit zum christlichen Glauben. Ausgehend von der Farbenlehre und -Symbolik der christlichen Ikonographie entwickelte Klein ein Farbverständnis, dass die Farben Gold, Blau und Rosa oder Pink (Klein gebrauchte beide Begriffe abwechselnd) hervorhob. Gold war Symbol Gottes und des Kostbar-Heiligem, Blau stand für den Sohn und Rosa für den Heiligen Geist. Diese farbliche Dreifaltigkeit machte der streng gläubige Katholik ab 1950 zum Gegenstand seiner Kunst - die ersten Monochrome entstehen. Zunächst widmet sich Klein hierbei einer primären Farbe, die er entwickelt aus Pigmenten und 1960 schützen lässt - das "International Klein Blue (IKB)". 1 Jahr zuvor, 1959 erweitert er sein Spektrum um Gold, es entstehen die sog. "Monogolds", die ausschließlich mit Blattgold angefertigt werden und Klein durch mittelalterliche Buchilluminationen dazu inspirieren ließ. 1960 gesellt sich dann Rosa/ Pink dazu, dass ebenfalls in Monochromen Verwendung findet. Die Trias ist vollständig, und Klein beginnt, diese im Einklang miteinander einzusetzen. 1960 in der Krefelder Ausstellung gestaltet Klein einen Raum In jede der drei Farben, das Zusammenspiel der Trias ist entwickelt und erinnern an Triptychen. Im Kontext der Ausstellung ist unsere Arbeit als Kleins Ausdruck der vollkommenen Farbe und Wirkung entstanden und in die Kunstgeschichte als wahrhafte Ikonen der Kunst des 20. Jh. eingegangen. 1 monochrome and 2 colour silkscreens in: Monochrome and Fire. Exhibition catalogue. With 1 gold-coloured monochrome with gold leaf applications on gold foil as well as 1 pink and 1 blue colour silkscreen, each on light wove card. Each loose in original envelope of the exhibition catalogue. - The monochrome in gold slightly bumped in outer edges and isolated slight surface abrasions or rather -stains. On the verso few small brown stains. The two colour silkscreens with slight isolated bumpings and colour abrasions in outer edges. The blue silkscreen with a short marginal tear (up to ca. 0.8 cm) on the right, with slight surface abrasions, on the verso few brown stains. The pink silkscreen slightly buckled on upper margin, few slight surface abrasions, on the verso with traces of the gold leaf of the monochrome and isolated small brown stains. The cover and catalogue text sheet with slight handling traces, slightly browned in places and with isolated small brown stains. Catalogue without the 2 double sheets with illustrations. Overall good. The gold monochrome in a glossy and shiny impression, the two colour silkscreens splendid, rich-powdery of intense and luminous colour. The gold-coloured monochrome was applied with gold leaf by Yves Klein and is a unique variant. - Exhibition catalogue of the Museum Haus Lange, Krefeld, 1961. - Pub. Kaiser Wilhelm Museum, Krefeld 1961. - The catalogue for the artist's very first complete exhibition in Germany, which was also his first institutional exhibition. It was to remain the only public museum exhibition of Yves Klein's work during his lifetime until his death in 1962, just one year later. - Yves Klein's interest in colour and the effect of colour is essential and defines his work. The artist was convinced that the essence of art lay in pure colour and believed that in the future only colour monochrome works would be created in art. For Klein, the primary experience was based on the more immediate perception of colour and had a clearly theological component, but should also be viewed in the context of a modified colour triad of the primary colours red, blue and yellow, as a symbolic understanding of Klein that also attributed a metaphysical, profane meaning to the colours. Klein linked the meanings together. For him, pure colour was charged with meaning; in particular, it was an expression of his deep connection to the Christian faith. Based on the colour theory and symbolism of Christian iconography, Klein developed an understanding of colour that emphasised the colours gold, blue and rose or pink (Klein used both terms alternately). Gold symbolised God and the precious sacred, blue stood for the Son and pink for the Holy Spirit. The strictly devout Catholic made this colour trinity the subject of his art from 1950 onwards - the first monochromes were created. Klein initially devoted himself to a primary colour, which he developed from pigments and had protected in 1960 - "International Klein Blue (IKB)". 1 year earlier, in 1959, he expanded his spectrum to include gold, creating the so-called "Monogolds", which were made exclusively with gold leaf and inspired Klein by medieval book illuminations. In 1960 he added rose/pink, which was also used in monochromes. The triad is complete and Klein begins to use them in harmony with each other. In 1960, Klein designed a room in the Krefeld exhibition In each of the three colours, the interplay of the triad is developed and is reminiscent of triptychs. In the context of the exhibition, our work emerged as Klein's expression of perfect colour and effect and has gone down in art history as a true icon of 20th century art.

              Est: CHF10,000 - CHF15,000

              YVES KLEIN (Nizza 1928–1962 Paris) Table IKB. 1963. International Klein Blue pigment, glass, plexiglass and chrome steel. From an unknown edition. With the signed and numbered label of authenticity on the underside: R. Klein-Moquay Serial number: 10 NE-ITT. 36 × 125 × 100 cm. ‘Nel blu, dipinto di blu’ - whether Domenico Modugno saw Yves Klein's exhibition at Milan's Galleria Apollinaire in January 1957 and the eleven monochromes he showed there before singing about flying through the endless, painted blue at the San Remo Festival in 1958, that remains a mystery. Looking at Yves Klein's monochrome blue works, drenched in IKB, the International Klein Blue developed by the artist himself, we find ourselves in that very state: thanks to the skilful application of paint and Klein's ingenious new binding agent, the ultramarine pigment remains powdery and with an enormous depth of colour on the picture surface, creating a vertiginous quality that seems to draw the viewer into the blueness. The side table ‘Table IKB’ (lot 3721) produces a very similar effect. This is a limited-edition piece based on one of the two originals from 1961, still designed by Yves Klein himself, and produced in small quantities every year since 1963 under the patronage of the Yves Klein archives and under the direction of Klein's widow Rotraut Klein-Moquay. The side table is available in three versions: IKB, Monopink and Monogold. In the IKB and Monopink versions (lot 3722), the pigment appears to sit, powdery and loose, in the flat box made of glass and Plexiglas that serves as the table top. The vertiginous effect, typical of Yves Klein's works, also comes about when looking into these colourful depths, while the eye scans the surface of the pigment from close up, as if in search of geographical landmarks. The Monogold variant (lot 3723) has its own special and additional charm: inside the glass box, it is as if gravity has been suspended and the light flickers amidst the most delicate gold leaf, some of which appears to have been caught in a state of weightlessness. The rare coming together of all three versions of the side table allows us to establish links to Klein's earlier works: in 1961, the year he produced the ‘Ex-Voto in honour of Saint Rita of Cascia’ he had already created the first two tables and had already combined the two pigments and the gold leaf in a similar Plexiglas construction, which may then have laid the foundation for the Ex-Voto. In Table IKB, Monopink and Monogold, art is combined with design, museum space with private space, and exclusivity with the everyday. As unusual multiples with their very own history, these three side tables would enrich any modern furnishing concept, both individually or in this very rare opportunity of all three variants together. --------------- YVES KLEIN (Nizza 1928–1962 Paris) Table IKB. 1963. International Klein Blue Pigment, Glas, Plexiglas und Chromstahl. Aus einer unbekannten Auflage. Mit dem signierten und nummerierten Authentizitätsetikett auf der Unterseite: R. Klein-Moquay Serial number: 10 NE-ITT. 36 × 125 × 100 cm. "Nel blu, dipinto di blu" – ob Domenico Modugno Yves Kleins Ausstellung in der Mailänder Galleria Apollinaire im Januar 1957 und seine dort gezeigten elf Monochrome gesehen hat, bevor er 1958 auf dem Festival San Remo vom Fliegen durch das endlose, wie gemalte Blau singt, bleibt ein Geheimnis der Vergangenheit. Betrachtet man Yves Kleins monochrom blauen Arbeiten, getaucht in das von ihm entwickelte IKB, das International Klein Blue, tritt aber genau der besungene Zustand ein: Durch den geschickten Farbauftrag und das von Klein neu ausgetüftelte Bindemittel liegt das Ultramarinpigment pudrig und mit enormer Farbtiefe auf dem Bildträger und verursacht eine Sogwirkung, die die Betrachtenden scheinbar ins Blaue hineinzieht. Eine ganz ähnliche Wirkung zeigt sich bei dem Beistelltisch "Table IKB" (Los 3721). Diese Auflagenarbeit wird seit 1963 unter der Schirmherrschaft von Kleins Witwe Rotraut Klein-Moquay und den Yves Klein archives in einer jährlichen kleinen Stückzahl produziert. Die Optik orientiert sich an den beiden Originalen aus Yves Kleins Hand, die er noch vor seinem Tod in 1961 entwirft. Der Beistelltisch wird in drei Versionen herausgegegeben: IKB, Monopink und Monogold. Bei den Versionen IKB und Monopink (Los 3722) scheint das Pigment pudrig lose in der flachen Box aus Glas und Plexiglas zu ruhen, die als Tischplatte fungiert. Die für Yves Kleins Werke typische Sogwirkung entsteht auch beim Blick in diese farbigen Tiefen, während das Auge aber beim Sehen ganz aus der Nähe auch die Oberfläche des Pigments abtastet, als sei es auf der Suche nach geografischen Landmarken. Die Variante Monogold (Los 3733) hat ergänzend zu den beiden Pigmenttischen ihren ganz eigenen Reiz: Im Inneren des Glaskastens scheint die Schwerkraft wie aufgehoben und das Licht flirrt zwischen zartestem Blattgold, das wie schwerelos eingefangen zu sein scheint. Bei der sehr seltenen Kombination aller drei Varianten des Beistelltisches am gleichen Ort lassen sich Verbindungen zu Kleins früheren Arbeiten ziehen: So bringt er schon 1961, im Jahr des Entwurfs für die ersten beiden Tische, in seiner Arbeit "Ex-Voto zu Ehren der Heiligen Rita von Cascia" die beiden Pigmente sowie Blattgold in einer ähnlichen Plexiglas-Konstruktion in Verbindung und mag damit den Grundstein für diese Auflagenarbeit gelegt haben. In Table IKB, Monopink und Monogold vereint sich Kunst mit Design, musealer mit privatem Raum sowie Exklusivität mit Alltagsgegenstand. Als ausgefallene Multiples mit ihrer ganz eigenen Geschichte bereichern diese drei Beistelltische jedes moderne Einrichtungskonzept, sowohl einzeln als auch in der raren Kombination aller drei Varianten. ---------------

              Yves Klein, a pioneering artist of the 20th century, is renowned for his influential contributions to the field of art. Born in France in 1928, Klein was a key figure in the post-war art movement and is best known for his monochromatic blue artworks, as well as his exploration of space, color, and immateriality.Klein's most iconic hue, which he named "International Klein Blue" (IKB), became synonymo with his work. This vibrant shade of ultramarine blue held great significance for the artist, representing the infinite and the immaterial. Klein believed that his blue had a spiritual quality, capable of transcending the physical world.One of Klein's notable artistic endeavors was his series of monochromatic blue paintings. These works, often created ing his patented IKB pigment, featured smooth and even surfaces devoid of brhstrokes or texture. By eliminating any trace of the artist's hand, Klein aimed to emphasize the pure essence of color and evoke an emotional and sensory experience in the viewer.Klein's exploration of immateriality led to his concept of the "void" or the "immaterial zone." In 1958, he presented an exhibition titled "The Void," where he famoly displayed an empty gallery space. By removing all physical artworks, Klein sought to challenge conventional notions of art and create an immersive experience for the audience, encouraging them to contemplate the intangible and the limitless.In addition to his paintings and conceptual works, Klein also experimented with performance art and sculpture. He developed a technique called "Anthropometry," in which he ed nude models as "living brhes" to create imprints on canvas. This performative approach blurred the lines between art, action, and the human body, reflecting Klein's fascination with the intersection of the physical and the spiritual.Yves Klein's groundbreaking artistic vision and his exploration of color, space, and immateriality continue to inspire and influence artists to this day. His audacio e of blue, his pioneering conceptual ideas, and his relentless pursuit of the intangible have solidified his place as a revolutionary figure in the art world. Klein's legacy serves as a testament to the transformative power of art and the boundless possibilities of creative expression. Measures 23 x 23.
