Yves Klein，Artist(1928.4.28-1962.6.6) 

　　伊夫·克莱恩是一位法国概念艺术家，有着广泛而有影响力的实践。也许最为人铭记的是他创造了生动的蓝色阴影，他在20世纪50年代开始创作他的单色系列，通过开发和专利自己的标志性色调，称为ikb，或国际克莱恩蓝。

　　坠入虚空

　　
　　为了体验飞翔和失重的感觉，1960年，伊夫·克莱因完成了这件"坠入虚空"的行为作品，在没任何保护的情况下，克莱因从二楼窗口纵身跃出。这个坠落的过程被摄影师飞快的记录了下来。虽然腿被摔伤，但这正是克莱因想捕捉到一种不同寻常的感觉需要付出的代价。

　　In order to experience the feeling of flying and weightlessness, Eve Klein completed the act of "falling into the void" in 1960. Without any protection, Klein jumped out of the second floor window. The process of the fall was quickly recorded by the photographer. Although his leg was injured, it was the price Klein had to pay to capture an unusual feeling.

　　
　　克莱因曾经说过这样一番话：感觉，就是存在于我们自身存在之外，但又永远属于我们的东西。感觉是大自然通用的货币，张开想象的翅膀，我们的感觉让生命属于我们。而这件作品就是他的理念的完美诠释。

　　Klein once said that feeling is something that exists outside of our own existence but belongs to us forever. Feeling is the currency of nature. Opening the wings of imagination, we feel that life belongs to us. And this work is the perfect interpretation of his ideas.
