Discover the extraordinary life of internationally renowned German-French contemporary artist Rotraut Klein-Moquay, known simply as Rotraut. Based in Arizona, she uses organized shapes to create paintings and sculptures that explore the magic and mysteries of the natural world, including the sky, stars, and universe. Rotraut: l'énergie de la ligne (Rotraut: The Energy of the Line) provides an intimate look into Rotraut's life and practice, specifically her long fascination with the universe and how her work explores the energy of the seasons and the cosmos. Now 84 years old, the artist reveals for the first time the magic of her life with Yves Klein, how her poetic thoughts and authenticity feed her work, and how she forged her own way in the art world. The 60-minute documentary created by Bliss Photo and Video is presented in French with English subtitles.
