Wow, on the day that his retrospective exhibition ends at the ICP. Very strange. RIP...

One of the greats. He made it to 96 and saw a great deal of success in his lifetime. That's a pretty good run.

Wonderful photographer who carved out his own path.
He encapsulated (his own view) of the mid-sixties fashion world here:

I viewed this exhibition at ICP on August 31st; very well done and quite extensive, both film and video. BTW, it runs through September 15th, this Thursday. If you can get t in to see it, it would be well worth your while.

So sad...I remember his exhibition I visited a few years ago in Arles: powerful, innovative and inspiring.
RIP Mr. Klein
