Questions About The Performers
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022
    During his painting performances, Yves Klein used naked women in place of paintbrushes. While he produced art in front of an audience, he played “Klein's Monotone Symphony.” It was just one note played repeatedly for 20 minutes before a 20-minute period of silence. You'll find a selection of Yves Klein art on 1stDibs.
