Black-and-white and colour fashion photographs range from portraits to filmic and surreal tableaux, revealing klein's revolutionary impact on the genre, whilst film posters and stills show the ways in which he captured and commented on the spirit of the times, creating biopics of muhammad ali and Little Richard and Feature films with stars including Donald Pleasance and Serge Gainsbourg.

Supplementing the stunning images is an insightful text by David Campany that in Klein's own opinion would be impossible to better as a succint distillation and fine understanding of his life's work accross a wide range of artistic fields.
