10 different, not exactly the same falls of Yves Klein.

As in Klein's carefully choreographed paintings, in which he used nude female models dipped in blue paint as paintbrushes, Klein's photomontage paradoxically creates the impression of freedom and abandonment through a highly contrived process. In October 1960, Klein hired photographers Harry Shunk and Jean Kender to make a series of photographs that mimicked a jump from a second-floor window that the artist claimed to have performed earlier. This second jump was made from a rooftop in the Parisian suburb of Fontenay-aux-Roses. In the street below, a group of the artist's friends were holding a tarpaulin to catch him when he fell. Two negatives - one showing Klein jumping, the other the surrounding scene (without the tarpaulin) - were then printed together to create a seamless "documentary" photograph. To complete the illusion that he was able to flee, Klein distributed a fake brochure at Paris newsstands commemorating the event.
