Robert Barry. In more than one work he released inert gases into the atmosphere, such as helium. The work was reenacted by Eva and Franco Mattes in New York about 2008 if I remember correctly - perhaps Magda Sawon can tell us exactly.

My memory is that it was by a German conceptualist and was actually sold by a Berlin gallery (and got lots of popular press as a consequence). It’s name was something like “One Cubic Metre of Air” and that’s exactly what it was - unframed, unboxed, unwrapped (not Christo!). Does anyone remember this and point me to some documentation, the artist (and the gallery’s) name?
