Issued for the exhibition held at Galerie Karl Flinker, 25 rue de Tournon, Paris, 14 February to 24 March 1973, opening 13 February.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough monochromes, bodily imprints, fire, performance and the immaterial, Klein shifted painting away from the production of images and towards colour, action and event. The publication moves between monochrome surfaces, sprayed silhouettes and the Anthropometries: works made through the direct imprint of painted bodies, which Klein described as “living brushes.” The catalogue’s blue reproductions do not simply illustrate the work; colour passes through the publication as its organising material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis example retains the original illustrated wrappers. The rear is printed with a large facsimile of Klein’s signature, incorporated into the design rather than added by hand. The artist’s name appears as both attribution and image.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e18 × 24 cm. 32 pages.
