Yves Klein and the Tangible World is currently on display at Lévy Gorvy Dayan until Saturday, May 25, 2024. This exhibition explores the unique approach of French artist Yves Klein to engaging the body in his artwork. Curated in partnership with the Yves Klein Foundation, the show features nearly 30 examples of Klein’s Anthropométries (1960–62) and Peintures de feu (Fire Paintings, 1960–62), as well as Sculpture tactile (Tactile Sculpture, created around 1957).
The exhibition provides a focused look at these works, which have never been displayed together in such a manner before. Alongside the exhibition, there will be a special film screening on May 1st. The film, Yves Klein Monotone-Silence Symphony, will provide additional context and insight into Klein’s artistic vision and processes. Visitors are encouraged to attend the screening to further their understanding of the artist and his works.
