Rose pigment, glass, plexiglass, wood, and steel - This work is from an edition begun in 1963 under the supervision of Rotraut Klein-Moquay based on a model by Yves Klein - Signed R. Moquay and numbered on a label affixed to the underside // Yves Klein's Table Rose (1961/1963) is an iconic piece blending art with functional design, part of a limited-edition series produced posthumously under the supervision of Klein's widow, Rotraut Klein-Moquay. This low table features a vibrant pink pigment encased in glass and plexiglass, with a minimalist structure supported by sleek steel legs. The intense, saturated pink hue, characteristic of Klein's exploration of color, creates a striking visual impact and evokes a sense of warmth and vibrancy. Encasing the pure pigment within clear, clean-lined materials transforms the table into a display of color and texture, turning a functional object into an artwork. Signed and numbered on the underside, Table Rose challenges the boundaries between art and everyday objects, exemplifying Klein’s fascination with pure color fields and his legacy in monochromatic exploration.

What is Nouveau Realism?
Nouveau Réalisme is an artistic movement founded in 1960 by art critic Pierre Restany and painter Yves Klein during a collective exhibition at a gallery in Milan. Restany wrote the original manifesto in April 1960, proclaiming the movement. In October of that year, nine artists, including Martial Raysse, Yves Klein, Daniel Spoerri, Jean Tinguely, Arman, Pierre Restany, and three Ultra-Lettrists—Jacques de la Villeglé, François Dufrêne, and Raymond Hains—signed the declaration. In 1961, the movement expanded to include Mimmo Rotella, Niki de Saint Phalle, Gérard Deschamps, and César. The movement emphasized a return to reality in art, often incorporating everyday objects and exploring the boundaries between art and life.
