Yves Klein is for me, and many others, the most important French
artist after Henri Matisse. This may sound somewhat appalling to some,
as Klein enjoyed only a very concise, but invigorating, seven-year
artistic career. But I will clarify this controversial judgment by
pointing out his historic relevance to our era of digital culture. The
emphasis here will be on Klein’s conceptual articulation of the
spatial and the ephemeral/immaterial in relationship to our current
actual state of virtuality. Indeed the subtitle of the exhibition,
CORPS, COULEUR, IMMATÉRIEL (Body, Color, Immaterial), itself brings
out the salient viractual aspects of Klein's art.
