Yves Klein

In the mid-Fifties, Yves Klein (1928–1962) declared that “a new world calls for a new man”. With his idiosyncratic style and huge charisma, this bold artist would go on to pursue a brief but bountiful career, producing more than a thousand paintings over seven years in an oeuvre now considered a mainstay of the postwar modernism.

Klein made his name above all with his large, monochrome canvases in his own, patented hue of blue. International Klein Blue (IKB), composed of pure pigment and binding medium, is at once rich and luminous, evocative and decorative, and was conceived by Klein as a means of evoking the immateriality and infinitude of the world. The works of this “Blue Revolution” seem to draw us into another dimension, as if hypnotized by a perfect summer sky.

A pioneer of daring painting techniques, Klein was also renowned for his deployment of “living paintbrushes”, in which naked women, daubed in International Klein Blue, would make imprints of their bodies on large sheets of paper. Often, these Anthropométries were staged as elaborate performances, complete with blue cocktails or Klein’s own Monotone Symphony.

This Basic Art introduction presents key Klein works to introduce an artist who was at once a showman, inventor, and pioneer of performance art. With page after page of the ever-alluring International Klein Blue, it is both an essential guide to a modern art master and a meditation on the unique effects of a single color.

Snaps right in and looks amazing
Style: Gloss Black Double Slats, Size: E92(2006-2009)
This is my second order of these grilles and both sets went in without any issues at all. The gloss black finish is exactly what the E92 front end needs and the quality feels way better than you would expect for the price. Anyone still running chrome on their E92 is missing out on an easy and cheap upgrade.

Use RTV to secure
Style: Gloss Black Double Slats, Size: E90(2009-2011)
Fitment is okay, the bottom clips of the grill don’t really “clip” in to the bumper. Old Amazon grills flew off since I only used double sided tape to secure them. I used black RTV to secure these ones and they ain’t flying off this time. Over all would buy again.
