TRUE BLUE: INTERNATIONAL KLEIN



                                                 
   SS 2014 men's collections
YVES KLEIN

Yves Klein painted using different colours, but a singular shade of ultramarine blue was patented by the artist himself as "InternationalKlein Blue". Records of the effects of rain and wind were the basis for the series "Cosmoganies" (1960). In "Anthropoméries" (1961), he used impressions of the human body on large canvases, this series has generated a lot of criticism mostly in an exhibition in which he produced a canvas during the opening with several naked women painted in blue rolling on an open canvas over the ground.

 “La mécanique des dessous, une histoire indiscrète de la silhouette”

Corps à baleines, 1770-1780


Perfection was one of the main words on women and men's vocabulary from the very beginning of XVIth century. Ever since the corsets, pushup bras and the 'false bottoms' were created, many of these strange yet abundant pieces of accessories haven't stopped working for the imagery of an ideal body. The Mecanique des Dessous exhibition set at Les Arts Decoratifs is bringing for the first time a series of corsets, belt stomachs, push ups, bustlesand even dresses from public and private collections. 



Musée des Arts Décoratifs de Paris, from 5 July to 24 November 2013
