[Yves Klein]. Yves Peintures. Preface by Pascal Claude. Madr - Lot 670
[Yves Klein]. Yves Peintures. Preface by Pascal Claude. Madrid, Impr. Fernando Franco de Sarabia, 1954 [Paris, Editions Dilecta, 2006], leaves, publisher's slipcase titled in gold on upper cover. Facsimile produced in the original format and paper. Limited edition of 1000 copies, 1/400 numbered (ex. no. 624). In May 1954, Yves Klein (1928-1962) published a limited edition of his monochrome collection "Yves Peintures". This mythical book was produced and edited by Fernando Franco de Sarabia's engraving studio in Madrid. The preface, by Pascal Claude, is composed of black lines in place of the text. The ten color plates are made up of monochrome rectangles cut from paper, with dimensions in millimeters. Each plate indicates a different place of creation (Madrid, Nice, Tokyo, Paris). This work is the artist's first public gesture. It is a work of art in which Yves Klein raises the question of reproduction in art. Mint condition.
