All About Yves Radio 4, 11.30am

A documentary looking at the life, work and legacy of French artist Yves Klein who, according to the art historian James Fox, should be remembered for so much more than a beautiful shade of blue. Klein was a pioneer in the fields of performance and installation art, a bold conceptual artist well before conceptual art was born and a minimalist before that was conceived. With profundity and showmanship, his was a career as brilliant as it was short (he died 60 years ago this month, aged just 34). Despite this tragedy, argues Fox, the evidence of his enduring influence can be seen in every corner of the contemporary art world.
