A few years ago i wrote a blog on Micha Klein. Klein is slightly younger than Erwin Olaf , but has a carrer which resembles the career of Erwin Olaf. Both are embraced by interior decorators all over the world for their large blown up photographs, but where Olaf creates an atmosphere of classic “SIXTIES” scenes and dark historic scenes, Klein is much more “light” in his compositions.

Futuristic, colorful and modern scenes are his trademark. A few months ago i found another copy of the Micha Klein / Groninger Museum catalogue and put it up for sale, but months later an even far more scarce item was added to the Micha Klein inventory. It is the Micha Klein exhibition poster. Design by Swip Stolk and of a rare quality. The poster is MINT and is perfect for framing. A glossy poster which resembles the original photograph and now available at www.ftn books.com.

Micha Klein in s probably the first dutch Computer artist. He studied at the Rietveld academy and was there the firts to complete his studies as a video / computer artist. Using the dance scene as one of his first sources of inspiration he soon became known for his use of bright colors and the use of  “beautiful People” .

His art stands out since you can immediately see that his photographs or stills are worked over by computer. The result is an artificial kind of photograph which does not corresponds with reality. Together with Erwin Olaf and Ruud van Empel he forms a new generation of photographers who use the computer as an extra lense to make their photographs perfect. www.ftn-books.com has the Groninger Museum publication on Micha Klein available.
