About The Artwork

Born in Montreal, Canada, Jean Yves Klein is a painter and sculptor based between Berlin and the Peloponnese. The artist has exhibited his works around the world and in 2008 was commissioned to decorate the Gendarmerie in Berlin. Klein often incor - porates mythology into his works, creating new kinds of creatures for his audiences. In Kiss 1, the awkward embrace of the artist’s idiosyncratic beasts is turned playful by the figures’ quirky expressions and brightly coloured forms. While this playfulness and the rough, unfinished surface of the ceramic suggest childlike qualities, evoking the styles of Modernist masters such as Jackson Pollock or Cy Twombly, Klein ultimately demons - trates a studied understanding of the human form.

Cinema for Peace is an international non-profit organization with the goal to encourage greater awareness of global social, political and humanitarian challenges of our time, and to find solutions. Since after 9/11, 2001 the non-profit organization Cinema for Peace has been aiming to influence through films the perception and resolution of global social, political and humanitarian challenges of our time. We are convinced that film plays a significant role in highlighting inequality, injustice and inhumanity, as well as offers hope and a vision for a better future. Cinema for Peace aims to bring these humanitarian issues to public attention by partnering with the international human rights community as well as influential people in media, politics, business and society, to showcase cinematic works which emphasize the human condition and values. In recent years, Cinema for Peace has supported a number of important causes with the help of artists like Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman and personalities such as the Dalai Lama, Muhammad Ali, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Mikhail Gorbachev and the former Honorary Patron Nelson Mandela.
