Cosmogonía

Mediums: pure pigment and synthetic resin on paper.
Location: the private collection of Rotraut Klein, Paris (France).

Klein believed that the artist should be the creator of new incentives: for him, the objects of traditional oil painting were dead things of the past. Klein defended the new realism of real sensitivity. About his cosmogonies, he wrote, “I am on the bank of the river among the reeds. I dust everything with pigments, and the wind bending the thin stems comes to display them with precision and delicacy on my canvas, which I give to the trembling nature: I get a plant footprint.” Similarly, the artist wrote about the signs of rain. His unique ultramarine pigment, which had a real optical space for the artist and a spiritual depth similar to Zen, was used in most cosmogonies.
