Yves Klein tirelessly searches for the essence of art and wants to expose its immateriality.
The artist thus finds in sculpture a true space of freedom where the monochrome permeates the three-dimensional space.
In 1962, Yves Klein covered universally admired masterpieces with his IKB blue: the Venus of Alexandria, the Victory of Samothrace and Michelangelo's Dying Slave. They then become
embodied objects, sensitive presences.
In 2022, 100 years after its success at the Salon d'Automne, François Pompon's White Bear meets Yves Klein's blue. One captured the essence of form, the other that of color and beyond,
the essence of art. The art of reality, of freedom, of life.
