All the World’s a Stage is the most ambitious and comprehensive exhibition of the work of William Klein (1926-2022), recognised as one of the most influential photographers of the second half of the 20th century, on the European continent since his death. Covering various aspects of his work through around 200 works - street photography, fashion, cinema, editorial production - and taking us to major cities such as New York, Paris, Rome, Moscow and Tokyo, the exhibition emphasises the performative dimension of the American photographer, highlighting the unique way in which he interacted with his models and subjects. «Everywhere we look in Klein’s extraordinary output, whether it is on his fashion pages for Vogue, in his exuberant photobooks, on the cinema screen, or on the walls of exhibitions, his exploration of performance was an animating force.» writes the curator of the exhibition David Campany, one of the most renowned contemporary researchers in the field of photography.
