Any chance of a bit more about this "chapbook containing only empty pages"? Does it have a name, or a date or something? I've never heard of it (not that I'm an expert or anything), and can't find anything on the web (I know I'm probably just looking in the wrong places). --Camembert
[edit] Not exactly empty
The book I know of wasn't exactly empty. He published a catalog that consisted of colored squares of paper attached to pages with names of paintings. Apparently there is no consistency to which colored squares were attached to which page/title. That's vague, but I don't have my books on me right now to look up.
[edit] Replaced image
I took out a monochrome work that was "in the style of Yves Klein" and replaced it with a monochrome piece that was by Klein himself. It was a nice picture, but off topic, especially when the actual thing is so readily available. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Drewcifer3000 (talk • contribs) 16:29, 5 September 2006.
- Hmmm... excepting of course that a photograph of one of Klein's paintings would be a derivative work and so potentially copyright. And indeed, that image has now been deleted for lack of copyright tagging.
- The image in the style of Yves Klein, gave an accurate impression of the how the monochrome canvasses looked. An argument could still be made for copyright infringement but it would be difficult to justify. Someone might like to consider restoring one of these earlier images. -- Solipsist 12:15, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
