This limited edition plate is based on Klein's original work from 1957 and produced by Yves Klein Archives. Acylic display box is included.
The Untitled Blue Plate, (IKB 54), was executed in 1957 at a pivotal moment in Yves Klein’s career, the same year in which he perfected the production of the color-matter that he would call IKB (International Klein Blue), characteristic of the works of his “Époque bleue” and which would become his signature and the vehicle for his quest for the immaterial. This IKB applied to earthenware emanates a palpable cosmic energy, the experience of infinite freedom. Yves Klein took care to paint the edge to reinforce the diffusion of the pure colour.

“The composition, even the texture of my paintings, is texture of the pictorial matter; it must be highly effaced, intensely worked, strong, and serious, in order to permit the display in all its splendor, color.”

Untitled Gold Plate by Yves KleinRegular price $7,500.00Untitled Gold Plate by Yves Klein
This limited edition plate is based on Klein's original work from 1959 and produced by Yves Klein Archives. Acylic display box is included.Blue, gold and pink. Yves Klein’s three emblematic colors, cited in this order in his writings, are brought together on the Untitled Gold Plate, created in 1959. “Linked to blue and pink, gold is also at the heart of fire. Gold for God the father, blue for the divine made man, and crimson madder for the Holy Spirit” is how Pierre Restany explained the systematic articulation of the three colours at the end of the artist’s life. Blue, gold and pink constitute the link that unites flesh and spirit and ensures the transition from one to the other. A material of exchange, transmutation and desire for the absolute, gold alone possesses the artistic qualities that transform an object into a work of art, that lead to the immaterial.1,000 copies numbered from 1/1,000 to 1,000/1,00050 copies numbered from EA 1/50 to EA 50/50
