Invisible City

"An homage of sorts to Weegee's 1945 Naked City, Invisible City is a grainy, dark, impressionistic portrait of urban life. Unlike Weegee, who made New York seem like a theater of sentimentality and cornball humor, Ken Schles wants to point to its spiritual poverty." "Individually, the photographs range wildly in quality, but the book's layout and sequence give them a minor-key vitality and an unkempt brilliance."--Andy Grundberg, from the New York Times Book Review. Chosen by Mr. Grundberg as one of the ten best books of 1988. Beautifully printed in gravure.
