Yves Klein — Album de la Conférence à la Sorbonne
Yves Klein

Album de la Conférence à la Sorbonne

1969

This record sleeve and vinyl presentation features a striking deep blue monochromatic composition housed in a clear plastic case. The work exemplifies the minimalist aesthetic and color field exploration characteristic of mid-twentieth century avant-garde practice. Created as documentation of a conference at the Sorbonne, the piece merges artistic and intellectual discourse through its material form. The pure, saturated blue surface dominates the composition, inviting contemplation of color as subject and experience rather than mere decoration. This square format album represents the intersection of music, visual art, and conceptual philosophy.
