Yves Klein's Table Monopink is a striking piece of functional art that showcases his innovative use of color and his ability to integrate art into everyday objects. Created in the early 1960s, this table is part of Klein's Monopink series, which features works enveloped in a vivid rose pigment. The table combines minimalist design with a bold use of color, resulting in a piece that is both visually captivating and conceptually rich.


The Table Monopink features a simple, elegant structure, typically with a rectangular or square shape and a clear glass top. Beneath the glass, the table's surface is thoroughly covered in Klein's distinctive rose pigment. This vibrant pink hue creates a striking visual impact, transforming the table into a radiant and eye-catching centerpiece. The glass top not only protects the delicate pigment but also enhances its luminous quality, inviting viewers to appreciate the depth and intensity of the color.


Klein's use of International Klein Pink in the Table Monopink reflects his fascination with the spiritual and emotional power of color. He believed that pure colors could evoke profound sensory and psychological responses. By incorporating this intense pink into a functional object like a table, Klein blurred the lines between art and utility, challenging conventional notions of how color and form interact in everyday life.


Table Monopink stands as a testament to Yves Klein's visionary approach to art and design. Celebrated for its bold use of color and its seamless integration of artistic and practical elements, the piece continues to inspire and engage viewers. Today, Table Monopink exemplifies Klein's enduring legacy as an artist who redefined the relationship between aesthetics, function, and meaning in the modern era.
