Very good and well-preserved impressions with vibrant colors.
Monochrome und Feuer was the only retrospective held for Klein during his lifetime, and the largest ever organized for the artist to date. It featured architecture drawings, an "immaterial" space, his Mur de Feu, as well as examples of his iconic blue, pink and gold monochromes. Primarily working with the signature blue pigment throughout his career, Klein added these other two colors to his oeuvre around the time of the exhibition, held just a year prior to his death.
