Louisiana Museum of Modern Art's poster features Fire Color – FC 17 (1962) by Yves Klein. Widely regarded as one of the key figures of modern art, Klein is also strongly represented in Louisiana’s collection. Although he passed away at just 34, the French artist became a leading voice of the Nouveau Réalisme movement, a pioneer of performance art, and an influential forerunner to later developments such as Minimalism and Pop Art.
In Fire Color – FC 17, three of his signature colours take centre stage: pink, gold, and the artist’s iconic “Klein Blue.” Known respectively as Monopink, Monogold, and Monoblue, these hues often appear in Klein’s work and are frequently exhibited together as a triptych, even though each piece is an independent artwork. This vibrant poster highlights Klein’s distinctive, intensely expressive use of colour and makes a striking focal point in both minimalist and more daring interiors.
Louisiana Museum of Modern Art’s poster collection includes prints from iconic exhibitions held at the Danish museum over the years. Printed on high-quality paper, posters bring a stylish touch of contemporary art to your walls.
