Overview"Painter, photographer, cinematographer or graphic designer, William Klein eludes all labels and categories. Kleins visual language breaks away from the traditional approach in which the photographer is merely a discreet, almost invisible presence on the scene. Instead, he develops his photographs using anarchic, warped, out-of-focus but spontaneous images, which not only reveal but also emphasise the photographers presence on the screen. ""Contacts"" is the first collection of William Kleins famous contact sheets, revamped and over-painted. The most important and famous works of this great artist have been chosen and printed from these contact sheets those very same works that have made him one of the most acclaimed all-round photographers and artists in the last thirty years. The large prints in the book, some of which have never been published, are reproductions of painted contact sheets, and can be either detached and framed or kept in their original form in the book."
