Tate Liverpool's winter season launches with Yves Klein works

LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND (Reuters) - Paintings by Yves Klein go on display at Tate Liverpool gallery this week, the first solo exhibition in Britain of the influential French artist's works in more than 20 years. Around 30 pieces, some of them never before seen in Britain, will be on show until March at the gallery, including works painted in the late artist's signature pure-pigment International Klein Blue. Also opening at the gallery on Friday is an installation of two humanoid robots and a robot dog, part of "Sprung a Leak", a work by London-based artist Cecile B. Evans.
