Ken Schles is a NYFA Fellow. He's published four monographs. A reprint of his first book, Invisible City, is forthcoming from Steidl (Germany). A native New Yorker, he's a foreign correspondent for the FOAM museum blog (Amsterdam). His books are considered 'intellectual milestones in photography' (Süddeutsche Zeitung). Oculus, his most recent book, was a “best” photobook of 2011. His previous book, A New History of Photography: The World Outside and the Pictures In Our Heads, was a finalist for the 2009 Rencontres d’Arles Photographie Contemporary Book Award. Vince Aletti in the New Yorker called his book Invisible City, 'hellishly brilliant.' Invisible City was also included in MoMA’s More Than One Photography exhibition as the sole representative of the printed photographic book, and listed in M+M Auer’s survey of important photographic books. IC has influenced a generation of photographers and is a favorite of the photographer Robert Frank. His work is included in private and public collections including MoMA, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Brooklyn Museum, The Art Institute of Chicago, Museo D'Arte Contemporanea, LACMA and is held in more than 100 library and museum collections throughout the world.
