Yves Klein

At a certain point in his life, Yves Klein decided that from that moment on he would only use one colour in his paintings: blue. But not any old blue, Yves wanted a unique blue, his own blue, Klein Blue! To paint his works, Yves used wind, rain, fire and even human bodies, inventing Body Art.

He also composed a symphony using only one note and he used photography to defy the force of gravity. He always managed to find new ways to impress his audience.

The same series, in which the artist Fausto Gilberti recounts the works of the great figures in contemporary art with a clever and fun twist, includes the stories of Piero Manzoni, Jackson Pollock, Marcel Duchamp, Lucio Fontana, Yayoi Kusama and Banksy.
