Strangely enough, I was telling someone about these performance art works just a week ago. I had the good fortune to attend a re-enactment of his technique at the Centre Pompidou in Paris when I was a student. The name of the artist who played the part of Yves Klein escapes me now. Here is a video showing Klein himself:

The performance I saw was exactly as shown in this video, but you may think my reaction was rather philistine, because I remember being disappointed that the nude models were female!

The works are displayed in various museums.
