Matthew Klein, Timer, 16"x24", Archival pigment print from digital photographic file, 2024
Matthew Klein (b: 1942) studied art and architecture at Cooper Union, and graduated from Parsons School of Design with a degr...ee in visual communication. He taught photography at Parsons and com-munication technology at Pratt Institute. He currently teaches photography at Shenandoah University.
During a storied career spanning five decades in advertising, editorial and corporate photography, he continued his personal photographic investigations which had several points of originality. Among them:
In the early 1970’s he worked with a panoramic circuit camera which incorporated relativistic effects into street photography.
His long collaboration with Milton Glaser brought, as part of the Triennale di Milano, XVII, 1988, an exhibition of 3,244 photographs surveying Graphics in the City (perhaps the largest solo show of pho-to-graphic imagery).
Abstract imagery of 1998-2008 combined advanced color theory and quantum phenomena. He developed at this time ‘Virtual Installations’ which showed the works as if at scale in
various settings.
He retired from his commercial practice in 2018, and has been photographing abstracted vignettes of plant lives in northern Virginia, where he lives. Read more
