Description: 

Coming straight from Egypt, where he had just given a performance in Louxor, Pierre Pinoncelli walks around in a King Tutankhamun costume during the showing for the Yves Klein retrospective. This is his second tribute to Yves Klein, nearly 30 years after the first one given in New York at the Jewish Museum.
