Beijing exhibition transcends time and space to see Klein Blue

🩵 'If you like the sky and the sea, then you must also like Klein Blue.' Yves Klein, the creator of Klein Blue, a French national treasure-level master artist, a promoter of new realism, created Klein Blue because of his childhood love for the sky and the sea and his own growth experience. In fact, Klein Blue is not just a color, but a unique color material. The pure Klein Blue brings a strong visual impact, can attract attention at first sight, and is unforgettable. · 💙Exhibition information: 'Yves Klein - Beyond Time and Space' This is Klein's first large-scale personal retrospective exhibition in China. It is divided into eight units according to the artist's growth trajectory, namely judo, color, blue, universe and nature, anthropometry, fire, architecture and space, immaterial, nothingness and spirit, including painting, sculpture, art installation, documentary and other forms of presentation. The elements of the works are diverse, covering gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and the use of sponges is impressive. · ❤️Exhibition highlights: 🔹Timeline: After passing through the cool blue passage at the entrance, you can see the timeline, which details Klein's life and development process. When I went there, I happened to encounter public welfare explanation, nice~ 🔹Blue series: Klein especially loves blue. He believes that blue is the sky, the sea, the air, space and infinity. With the help of chemist Edward Adam and a chemical manufacturer, he discovered a synthetic resin, which eventually gave birth to the famous 'Klein Blue' and registered the patent IKB. · 🔹Sponge series: When the sponge is used as a material and is soaked in blue, it forms a charming blue sculpture. 🔹Anthropometry series: While playing the 'Monochrome Symphony', a group of models covered in paint paint with their bodies, leaving this famous 'Anthropometry' painting. · 🔹Fire series: Three colors of fire broke the traditional way of creation, and it was another exploration of Klein on the road of art. 🔹Blue art installation: The circular powder pool at the bottom is filled with blue paint, forming an immersive space with the rain in the sky. Looking up at the sky, perhaps there are a thousand answers in the hearts of a thousand people~ This is also the photo check-in place that went viral online✌🏻️ 🔹Nothingness series: From blue to colorless, from tangible to intangible, Klein has been constantly exploring art. · 💛Exhibition Hall: Guardian Art Center 📍Address: No. 1 Wangfujing Street 🚗Transportation: About 150m from Exit D2 of China Art Museum on Line 8, if you drive, Guardian has an underground parking lot for 10 yuan/hour 💰Cost: Adult ticket 150 yuan/person, double ticket 210 yuan/person, parent-child ticket 190 yuan/ 1 adult 1 child ⏰Business hours: Tuesday-Sunday 10:00-18:00
