Yves Klein (1928 – 1962)
Yves Klein was a pioneering French artist best known for his distinctive use of a single color, International Klein Blue (IKB). A leading figure in post-war European art, Klein's innovative works spanned painting, sculpture, and performance art, often exploring themes of immateriality and the infinite. He was a key influence in the development of minimalism and conceptual art. Klein's brief but impactful career included notable achievements such as his "Anthropometries" series, where he used human bodies as living brushes. His legacy continues to resonate in contemporary art.
