In fact, for these two artists, one could even discuss the "monochromatic"
aspect. On close up, Ryman's paintings are not just white but complex and
quite vibrant surfaces, less emotional than Pierre Soulages' black ones
though, but certainly more than, say, Donald Judd's.
And Klein, well I've been going back to Pompidou for years and I just don't
get where he got that blue paint. It's very strange, almost velvety, and
really beautiful. I have a large boar skeleton here in my office and I
always wanted to have it painted in patented YKB, just for the fun of it :-)
One sure thing, though, is that monochromatic paintings don't look good when
scanned and put on web pages!

Yves Klein, of course, thanks for catching that Gilles.
I believe the Pompidou is the only place I seen a real one, 20 years ago
now.
I have a large boar skeleton here in my office
Now there's got to be a story there!

I really need to get out more. In fact, I'm hoping to do just that.
Suddenly, I'm realizing how art-deficient I am. Even so, I've been viewing
more and more things via the Web. I realize that it's not the same as
actually viewing a painting or other work of art first hand (perhaps digital
art excepted), but until I can afford to travel around, it gets me by.

ces Gaulois!
Unfortunately, much of my French was learned via Asterix comics. :-/
Hopefully, it's grammatically correct, funny, and not insulting... ;-)

Yaaaaaawn. Very typical of me. I get involved in some project and get so
caught up in it that I have to prattle on when I'm not able to be
working on it.<g>

Most of Malevich's paintings are like that. Including if memory serves
a painting of a white square against a white ground. Accordingly,
having never seen "Red Square" I am not sure if it is simply red or if
it contains some sort of image. The difference is quite significant as
you say.

He wasn't the oen with which I was falimiar (Soulages was), but since
I'm having a really poor day at work, I did take some time to look, and
Judd was born in Excelsior Springs, Missouri. He had a studio in Texas.
Here is an interesting link I found:

LOL I've been thinking it was a monochrome painting all along. Oh well,
I guess what I've been saying still stands LOL
