Lévy-Kuentz’ “documentary fiction” is a remarkable introduction to abstract art through one of its most influential personalities.  Yves Klein’s career lasted only eight years, from 1954 to 1962, but he managed to shake the foundations of modern art. This portrait, featuring unreleased archival material (including Klein's own films), examines the artist's meteoric career and the mysterious correlations running through his work.
