The last book completed by William Klein within his lifetime: A
landmark retrospective encompassing Klein's legacy of creativity
across photography, filmmaking, painting, book design, graphic
design and beyond. Photographer. Filmmaker. Artist. Designer. To
master one of those disciplines would be a lifetime achievement for
any creative individual, yet William Klein's career was celebrated
in each of them over the last eight decades. Klein was one of the
great image makers of the 20th century and one whose work remains
an enduring creative influence on the work of contemporary artists,
photographers and filmmakers. With over 250 images, this career
retrospective explores the late William Klein's entire creative and
artistic arc. Directed by Klein himself, from the selection of
content to book design, this large-format publication looks back at
his uncompromisingly creative lifetime, showcasing Klein's prolific
and relentlessly innovative contribution to the world of
photography, art, design and filmmaking. Published in association
with a major retrospective at the International Center of
Photography, this book is a comprehensive take on his career. While
best known as a photographer who broke all the rules and
conventions, William Klein: Yes focuses on the full range of
Klein's work, from his abstract paintings through to his startling,
authentic street photography and photobooks and his dynamic,
satirical take on filmmaking. With a flowing, chronological text by
David Campany, this book will be both an introduction to William
Klein for a new generation and a source of fresh insights for those
who already know who William Klein was: a true original.
From the perspective of his 90 years of age, from the height of
being a legend in photography, William Klein looks back and selects
his favourite works, those that he considers to be the best in his
whole career, in order to pay homage to photography itself. This
book, not by chance titled Celebration, is a tour to his most
emblematic works: unique instants captured in New York, Rome,
Moscow and Paris, in powerful black and white or striking colour. A
true celebration of photography. This volume also includes a text
by the author in which he reflects upon photographic art and
explains what prompted him to make this sort of director's cut,
this exceptionally personal selection, which brings together the
works that, in his view, have made a contribution to the world of
photography. A small-format but high-voltage volume that, page
after page, makes it clear why Klein is one of the summits of
contemporary photography.
Working at the nexus of painting and photography, William Klein
conceived this original series when he was in the process of
reviewing other photographers' contact sheets for a film he was
making. Referencing the age of film photography, when photographers
selected images by circling individual negatives on a contact sheet
with brightly coloured grease pencils, Klein's works invent a new
kind of art object that organically marries painting and
photography. The resulting pieces are enormous mural-sized works in
which bold, kinetic colour frames and reframes enlarged
black-and-white images from throughout his career. Klein's iconic
fashion and street photography, always gritty and bold, is given a
new immediacy and relevance in this second life. In his foreword to
this edition, Klein describes these works as "all brush strokes and
jubilation. The jubilation of painting recall[s] the celebration of
taking the photo."

Researchers have become increasingly aware of how theories and
findings regarding self- and identity-regulation have important
implications for understanding health outcomes. Self- and identity
concerns can prompt increases in precautionary actions and healthy
behavior, but also increases in risky actions and unhealthy
behavior as well as the detection, diagnosis, progression,
management and treatment of a disease. At the same time, health
outcomes and concerns can influence self- and identity-regulation.
This special issue showcases the connections between health and
recent theorizing and research in self- and identity-regulation and
brings together cutting edge findings that fall at the intersection
of self- and identity-regulation and health.
