PS - I found a fun fact about Yves Klein while stumbling upon an online shop (HouseandParties.com) in one of Ali LaBelle's gift guides. "In 1958, Klein held an exhibition in Paris to introduce his color, and to the surprise of visitors, the gallery was empty and white. As it turns out...his guests went home to urinate blue because of the methylene blue that was in their cocktails."
