The photographs offered here show three of the multiple leaps artist Yves Klein made from the ledge of a building during the creation of his 1960 signature image "Saut dans le Vide (Leap into the Void)." These photographs document the remarkable physical exertions required of Klein to achieve the perfect airborne image, as well as the determination of photographers Harry Shunk and János Kender to capture it on film. As of this writing it is believed that none of these images have appeared at auction previously. To create "Leap," Shunk and Kender took a series of photographs of the quiet Rue Gentile Bernard in the Parisian suburb of Fontenay-aux-Roses. They then photographed Klein jumping from the roof multiple times, landing safely in a tarp held by nine friends on the street below.

Anniversary of APOLLO 11 MOON LANDING

On July 20, 1969, 109 hours and 42 minutes after launch, Neil Armstrong and Edwin ‘Buzz’ Aldrin entered the lunar lander ‘Eagle’, made a final check, and the Eagle undocked from the lunar orbiter 'Columbia’, where the third member of the crew Michael Collins, stayed in orbit around the moon. Partially manually piloted by Armstrong, the Eagle landed 0 degrees, 41 minutes, 15 seconds north moon latitude and 23 degrees, 26 minutes east moon longitude. Armstrong stepped out, and Aldrin followed 20 minutes later: human beings stepped on the moon for the first time. The two men spent 21 hours and 26 minutes on its surface. One of the astounding aspects of the mission was the seeming simplicity of the technology used to get man to the moon. According to Oliver Gassmann, professor of Technology Management, the mobile phone in your pocket has one million times more memory than the Apollo 11’s computer. Same about the procesor: the latest phones typically have more than 100,000 times the processing power of the computer that landed man on the moon 50 years ago.

“It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn’t feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.” –Neil Armstrong
