William klein

I have watched the William Klein documentary "The many lives of William Klein" a few times now and each time i am inspired by his work and his ways of working. He has had his work exhibited in numerous very popular art museums. He is best known for his street photography work across new york, although he has now moved on to doing a lot less projects but is experimenting with new ways to explore photography. The documentary looks at Klein's life and his was of working and his role in his exhibitions.


DURATION: 1 HOUR, 5 MINUTES
William Klein has lived many lives. One of the world's most influential photographers, he pioneered the art of street photography and created some of the most iconic fashion images of the 20th century. He also made over twenty films, including the first ever documentary about Muhammad Ali and a brilliant satire of the fashion world, Who Are You Polly Magoo?
With a major Tate Modern exhibition currently celebrating his work, imagine... spends time with William Klein to discover the irrepressible, charismatic personality behind a remarkable creative life.
