Foam finishes 2013 with a unique retrospective exhibition of Klein’s work and will dedicate the entire “Foam” to the life and work of this legendary genius. The career of William Klein spans more than sixty years and has an immense influence on photography during the second half of the twentieth century and still nowadays. 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.
