Photography
William Klein was an American photographer and filmmaker known for his inventive visual strategies in both media. Working from the 1950s onward, he developed a distinctive approach to street photography characterized by close framing, extreme angles, and deliberate grain that challenged the refined aesthetics dominating postwar practice. His films and photographs engaged with urban life, fashion, and popular culture as active subjects rather than mere documents.
