Yves Klein: Air Architecture
A space where the walls, the roof and even the furniture are made from compressed air, while the services (kitchen, bathroom and store) are grouped together underground. An environment with a controlled climate where people are free to move in direct contact with the earth and sky. This is a rough description of the “Air Architecture” dreamt up by Yves Klein in 1958 together with architect Claude Parent.
Directly emanating from his interest in the immaterial and passion for the primary elements in nature – fire, air and water – the love of the conceptual artist for architecture now forms the centre of an exhibition (and a book published by Hatje Cantz), set up at MAK in Los Angeles. Curated by French architect François Perrin who has created an installation for the Schindler House especially for the occasion. E.S.
