The artwork, “Untitled Green Monochrome,” created by Yves Klein in 1956, is an abstract piece that belongs to the Minimalism art movement. This work is part of Klein’s “Monochrome works” series and measures 50 x 2.5 cm.
The artwork features a narrow, vertical rectangular form entirely painted in a uniform green hue. The simplicity and uniformity of the green coloration evoke a sense of minimalism, highlighting the artist’s exploration of pure color and form. The slender, elongated shape of the piece, combined with its singular color, invites viewers to contemplate the essence of the color green, devoid of any representational or figurative elements.
