| Gun 1, New York 1955 (painted 2005) © William Klein |
Foam finishes 2013 with a unique retrospective
exhibition of the work of William Klein. The entire museum will be
dedicated to the life and work of this legendary photographer,
filmmaker and designer. The career of William Klein (b. 1928)
spans more than sixty years. His work had an immense influence on
photography during the second half of the twentieth century. The
exhibition gives ample coverage to Klein's ground-breaking work in
New York in the 1950s while also displaying work made in Rome,
Moscow and Tokyo. His work for Vogue shows Klein was a
great innovator in the field of fashion photography. In addition to
his early experiments with abstract photography, his large-scale,
painted-on contact prints that he's been creating in more recent
years will also be on view in Foam.
A selection of Klein's feature
films and documentaries will be shown in Foam's 3h library space.
This exceptional William Klein retrospective exhibition has been
curated by Foam and can be seen exclusively in
Amsterdam.
William Klein will be present at the opening of the exhibition on
Thursday, 19 December 2013.
Surcharge €1,25.
