About
For a decade, Ken Schles watched the passing of time from his Lower East Side neighborhood. His camera fixed the instances of his observations, and these moments became the foundation of his “invisible city.” Friends and architecture come under the scrutiny of his lens and, when sorted and viewed in the pages of this book, a remarkable achievement of personal vision emerges. Shot entirely in gritty, impressionistic 35mm black-and-white. Invisible City and Night Walk are part of a long tradition of personal social documentary photography that includes William Klein. As well as. Robert Frank, Daido Moriyama, and Nan Goldin, as well as more recent examples like Ryan McGinley.
