Photographer. Filmmaker. Artist. Designer. Mastering any one of these disciplines would be a vital achievement for any creative person, and yet William Klein's career has received praise in each of them over the past eight decades. Klein was one of the great image-makers of the 20th century, and his work remains an enduring creative influence on contemporary artists, photographers, and filmmakers.
With over 250 images, this career retrospective explores the entire creative and artistic arc of the late William Klein. Directed by Klein himself, from content selection to book design, this large-format publication uncompromisingly reviews his creative life, showcasing Klein's prolific and relentlessly innovative contributions to the worlds of photography, art, design, and film.
Published in association with a major retrospective at the International Center of Photography, this book is a comprehensive overview of his career. Although he is best known as a photographer who broke all the rules and conventions, William Klein: Yes focuses on Klein's entire body of work, from his abstract paintings to his stunningly authentic street photography and photobooks, to his dynamic and satirical vision of film. With a flowing, chronological text by David Campany, this book will serve as both an introduction to William Klein for a new generation and a source of new knowledge for those who already know who William Klein was: a true original.
