The book "**Declaring Space: Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman, Lucio Fontana, Yves Klein**" explores key themes in post-World War II abstract art. It focuses on the development of space and color in abstract painting, particularly within the context of **color-field painting** 【1】. The book examines the unique ways each of the four featured artists (**Mark Rothko**, **Barnett Newman**, **Lucio Fontana**, and **Yves Klein**) approached and "declared" space in their work 【2】【3】. These themes can be used to connect the book to other art history or art theory texts in a library.

Here are some themes and topics that would help you draw connections to other books:

- **Abstract Painting**: The book focuses on abstract art, particularly developments after World War II 【2】【4】.
- **Space and Color**: It examines how these artists used space and color in their work 【5】【4】.
- **Color-Field Painting**: The book is related to the evolution and philosophy of color field painting 【1】【6】.
- **Individual Artists**: The book delves into the individual practices and philosophies of Rothko, Newman, Fontana, and Klein 【3】.
