Metaphors of Objectlessness

Yves Klein

 from; The Chelsea Hotel Manifesto

 

Having rejected nothingness, I discovered the void.(..)

 ..That day, as I lay stretched upon the beach of Nice, I began to feel hatred for birds which flew back and forth across my blue sky, cloudless sky, because they tried to bore holes in my greatest and most beautiful work.

Birds must be eliminated.
