I love to watch this narration from Mrs. Klein millions Times and every time I feel beyond.....seeing and feeling Yves Klein through her eyes and Narration. Yves is still between us....💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
As an artist, no artist has taught me more or affected me more as an artist as seeing Yves Klein's work as a teenager. I never met him, but I still feel a sense of mourning or sadness that he died and that I never met him as I feel I owe him so much. He was not just the greatest artist in my eyes, but a magnificent teacher of philosophy and what art is through his work. God bless him. Peace and love
I had a dream just this morning, of paintings in such intense brilliant reds and blues, that I wrote down the details to describe them, so I could paint them later. A couple of hours later, this film was in my feed, and though I'd never heard of this artist before, I felt compelled to click on it because his name was Yve. Wow. Thank You Jesus. 👑
Similar to me Yvonne, trying make better an idea i had for a painting i reach a conceptually solution very similar to the fire and water paint by Yves withouth having idea of its exist. Think in Rotraut when she talk about connection with no time and flame and be inmaterial has a lot of sense to me. >Expect you make the greatest paint you dream sounds beautifull to me.
I live in Frankfurt close to the „Städel“ museum. They have Klein picture there. I was 18 when I saw it the First time. I couldn‘t stand this intensity, it was so powerfull that I could hardly Look at it. As the extra goes by this changes. When I now standing watching it, it first got this „shockwave“. But then , I lower my resistance, dive into it, and now it feels like a place , I am totally protected , that holds me warm and tender. But it made me also sad. The picture hasn‘t changed, But I, now 32 years has passed, I am 50 and my life has been very Full of pain. And I remeber this young man of 18 years, standig in front of this picture….and future was open and full of magic what this life will be, what I am going to experience, or create, or the happiness and whatever I am going to find. Unfortunatley, I didn‘t find anything of this. Only pain.
i love Yves Klein's art. i met her brother Günther 2 times in 1984 & 1986 over here in Bavaria and in Salzburg/Austria. Love her voice and all this history.
Klein wanted instant gratification without any of the work. He first wanted to open a judo school in France so he traveled to Japan to “study” at the main judo school there. Somehow , without actually testing, he convinced the Japanese masters to give him the highest rank of any European at the time. In order to reach the rank that was handed to Klein on a silver platter, everyone else had to face multiple black belts without losing a match. Klein didn’t even have to face a single challenger but he was able to convince the Japanese that it would be in their best interest to give him the rank so that he could go back to France and use it as a tool to promote his school. After he lost interest in judo he decided he wanted to, all of a sudden, with absolutely no training, become an artist. So he used his mother’s status as an artist to get in the door of the art world. The reason all his “art” is so simplistic is for the fact that he was not capable of creating anything beyond a blue canvas or an empty room. He just wanted to be an artist so bad and so immediately that he was willing to do anything he could. Unfortunately the “art world” (the super wealthy) fell for his con. And because the super wealthy dictate which art is real and which is not, In about 3 years he became a “world famous artist”. The moral of the story is that if you want something bad enough just fake it and hope that some wealthy idiots fall for it. If you’re weird and eccentric enough it doesn’t matter what kind of art you produce all that matters is that a rich guy will buy it.
When Klein returned to France there was another black belt practitioner who had begun teaching in his dojo. This man caught the niche first hence Kline flowed a different rout. His painting my not display traditional pictorial compositions of representation or abstraction. That is not to say that there were none but ever so subtle. Gentle beveled edeges, soft round corners, floated picture plane, variations in the method of applying pigment. All compositional decisions succeeded. This man was no joke. Still ahead of time. -In the blue
Klein is an expert con artist who fools, first the rich and then the average man, into believing he’s not only a great artist but a “genius”. If you look to the super wealthy, who buy art only to see who can out buy who, then you’ll be missing out on some truly great artistic genius. Don’t let money and fame influence your taste in art.
Your story seems fictitious and factually anemic. Were you born this cynical, bitter, and resentful of other people's fame - or did you slowly grow into it after a series of disappointments and rejections? Please - we're here to help you! :) Have a magical weekend!
@@kawakami789 i would even agree with you in the matter, that success, like financially, or fame are usually concepts that are brought into peoples heads by making them mainstream through rich "cultured" people, like those art buying rich guys, that define the worth of a piece of art through the price they pay for it. Thats for sure and counts for every art form i think. But at the same time that would mean that every famous artist in capitalist societies are justified as famous only through the made up value in money that people are willing to pay for it. But thats only the economic side of the story, Yves Klein was one of the many artists, that are still considered to have paved the way to art forms like performance and body-art such as fluxus for example. He absolutely directed the way he is portrayed as an exceptional artist himself (as well as this documentary did as well, like he is untouchable and genious und out of this world and women sacrifice for him and all that billshit) but he also threw up some important questions about authorship in art forms, as soon as he was not the physical force, that "made" something material, but more like to come up with a concept, an idea, that becomes the piece of art itself. Kind of a similar discourse as Marcel Duchamp was bringing up with his signed pissoir back then.
I dont think there is a more depressive story around in the art world. Klein, the son of successful artists, had no trouble rising in this context, but only was it to pursue a dream of pseudo-grandeur, in a degenerated milieu which was at the beginning of emphasizing speech over actual artistic production. Of course he fell for the behaviour and developped 'attitudes' instead of working his art (his early paintings showed some guy really capable of doing good) and his christian faith did the rest: a morbide appeal to death and its so-devised 'eternity'. Using high-rated amphetamine almost every day his death-wish soon became actuality. The most pieces he left are consequently very poor. Monochromes sold as 'new' forty years after Malevitch's 'white square on white', anthropomorphies which consist of using the human body (attratctive young females) as a brush, a bunch of burnt gold sheets and that is all. Strictly nothing in terms of historical significance he is reverred only by a few collectors and some artists who wish to get the same attention from the same guys. Pathetic.
Most artists follow their vision as Yves followed his. All artists need help getting started. A lot of artists use drugs and alcohol. Most artists feel a sense of importance about their work. All successful artists have to be recognised by art collectors, galleries and museums or we would know nothing of them and Yves ticked that box! Your opinion . . . Pathetic (mate I'm just having a laugh. your opinion is yours, from your point of view and is valid, as is all points of view from all perspectives) Also you should try and meet some artists...you might change your mind.
ArchAic tAle dude whatever to your “pathetic” .... who are you to condemn not only Klein but those of us that dig where the brother was coming from? Yo, you need to chill. This is different from Malevich. Not all monochromatic squares are the same thing dude. Think about it
youve got a very rigid geometric style of thinking. life and art is fluid and deep, try to not categorize and catalog it... adding parameters and structures.......
The first time I saw his work in person (IKB74 @ SFMOMA) - I was equally as drawn. I've never forgotten it and I'm eternally grateful. What a special interview. Thank you.

Solo los Franceses saben hacer arte junto con los Holandeses, Italianos y Espanoles. Punto

You come across as jealous of people who enjoy something which you don't. As you'd say: pathetic.
People like you- you will never understand what this life really is. I pitty you.
