Twelve years after his legendary first book, Invisible City, the American photographer Ken Schles presents a second book of photographs, The Geometry of Innocence. With these images, Schles focuses on omnipresent social structures, which - pushed by the flood of media images - are undergoing permanent, almost frantic change. This visual roller coaster sends his viewers onto city streets and playgrounds and into clubs and bars, puts them in police helicopters, and takes them to Death Row, hospital rooms and militarized zones. There is no story per se, only a breathless sequence of images condensed into thematic clusters - a highly intense visual experience that viscerally grabs viewers and holds them spell-bound. Conscious that the meaning of the photographic image is relative, Ken Schles explores the role images play in forming our perceptions of the world. With The Geometry of Innocence, he succeeds in creating a bold, highly sophisticated picture book.
