YVES KLEIN
Anthropométrie ANT 83.

Color screenprint on heavy cream wove paper, 2001. 550x790 mm; 21 3/4x31 1/4 inches (sheet), full margins. Numbered 173/200 in pencil, signed by the artist's widow, Rotraut Klein-Moquay, in ink and with the artist's estate ink stamp, verso. Published by Editions T.A.T. Arts, Paris. A very good impression with strong colors.

Based on one of Klein's (1928-1962) "Anthropometry" paintings from 1960, for which the artist used nude women as human paintbrushes, applying blue paint to their bodies and putting them in contact with canvas, paper, gallery walls and other materials.
