Ernest Cole 

While photographing the Apartheid, Ernest Cole unveiled a remarkable trademark: the art of invisibility. With this discreet technique, he documented the harsh realities of South Africa, offering profound truths about his world to a global audience.

This elusive quality persisted throughout Cole's career, guiding his lens through the bustling streets of Harlem, capturing the boundless spirit of Black joy, and the ever-changing urban landscape of New York.
