William Klein

1928

William Klein

American photographer William Klein’s wide-ranging career has encompassed groundbreaking snapshots, iconic fashion photos, experimental proto-Pop film and painted murals. Particularly notable, ‘Life is Good and Good for You in New York’ is a photographic diary of 1950s New York life depicting street scenes which represent a dramatic departure from the formal photographic conventions of the preceding era. Klein later produced similar studies of Rome, Moscow and Tokyo. His innovative approach was cultivated during time spent studying in France at the Sorbonne, Paris, under notable artists such as Fernand Leger. 

Klein’s contributions have been recognised with numerous prestigious awards including the Prix Nadar, the Hasselblad prize and the ‘Medal of the Century’ from the Royal Photographic Society, London. He has exhibited extensively in Tokyo, Amsterdam, Milan, Madrid, New York and Cologne in prominent institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art.
