"Reinventing the West: The Photographs of Ansel Adams and Robert Adams"
2001-01-12 until 2001-03-25
Addison Gallery of American Art
Andover, MA, USA

Reinventing the West features the work of landscape photographers Ansel Adams (1902–1984) and Robert Adams (b. 1937). Representing different generations and aesthetics, this exhibition explores each artist's personal response to the American landscape and reveals how their photographs reflect the broader issues of society's changing views of the natural world and in particular the Western landscape. The Addison will publish a fullly illustrated catalogue with essays by curator Allison Kemmerer and John Stilgoe, Orchard Professor in the History of Landscape Development at Harvard University.
