In 1986, Aperture released Bruce Davidson's Subway for the first time. This revolutionary series has received widespread critical acclaim, serving as a historical document capturing a distinctive period in New York City's cultural tapestry. It is also celebrated for its remarkable utilization of vivid color and contrasting shadows, juxtaposed against skin illuminated by flash photography.

In Davidson’s own words, “the people in the subway, their flesh juxtaposed against the graffiti, the penetrating effect of the strobe light itself, and even the hollow darkness of the tunnels, inspired an aesthetic that goes unnoticed by passengers who are trapped underground, hiding behind masks, and closed off from each other.”
