Yves Klein
Harry Shunk and János Kender took these images of Yves Klein's studio art performance "Anthropometries of the Blue Period" to document it in Paris, France in 1960.
I really liked this documented piece as I have never seen the human body being used almost as a paintbrush before other than seeing handprints and finger painting. Its like the models had created self portraits almost by becoming a human stamp as you can see the body shape of the women on the wall with the blue paint. I like how you can see the female form in a simplistic shape and the bright blue colour draws you in. It is a very good piece of studio art and it was enjoyable to see.
Erwin Wurm
Erwin Wurm let people become a sculpture for 60 seconds and she photographed them. She was documenting them becoming an artwork rather than them looking at artwork so that they could explore themselves in a new way. I like these images as it shows just what you can create in a short amount of time and how you can make use of objects you wouldn't usually think to use in order to express yourself or create a structure.
Masahisa Fukase Bukubuku
This series of images are called 'bubbling' and were taken in 1991. They are self portraits but taken in a more imaginitive way to express and explore the identity of ones self. I really like these images as they are very candid and personal, quite an intimate feeling given which helps to show the persons personality which is interesting to see when you haven't met the person before.
