{"product_id":"ken-schles-geometry-of-innocence","title":"Ken Schles — Geometry of Innocence","description":"\u003cp\u003eSchles’ electrifying images, which span New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Dallas, Detroit, San Francisco, Washington DC, and many points between, focus on omnipresent social structures, which—pushed by a flood of media images—are undergoing permanent, frantic change. This visual roller coaster ride through the belly of the urban beast propels us onto volatile city streets, alienating playgrounds, and into bars and clubs pulsating with an intoxicating mix of pleasure and danger. From the vertigo of police helicopters on high-speed chase, to the cold chill of Death Row, hospital rooms and militarized zones, this breathless sequence of images condenses into thematic clusters, which hint at stories never fully revealed, while deconstructing tropes of traditional photojournalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith The Geometry of Innocence, Ken Schles makes a powerfully prescient statement about the kind of world we have created for ourselves – finding illusions of promise don’t always conform to reality in our fragmented consumerist society. The Geometry of Innocence maps out this landscape of condition and challenges us to be more than just spectators. Released in the U.S. two weeks after the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center, The Geometry of Innocence is a hard look at a declining American landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wolf Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55759097463127,"sku":"BOO 4491 U","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/4914\/6272\/files\/4515-1_7dde92f8-988a-4f32-8f77-e50ec3ade78d.jpg?v=1794052020","url":"https:\/\/www.wolf-books.com\/products\/ken-schles-geometry-of-innocence","provider":"Wolf Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
