Ansel Adams: Pure Photography Exhibition Opening

Join us in the museum to see our latest exhibit, Ansel Adams: Pure Photography, opening Saturday, January 29.

Ansel Adams: Pure Photography includes close-up nature studies, portraits, and views of architecture Adams made during this formative time. A small selection of later photographs, including two of his most iconic prints, Aspens, New Mexico and Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico. The artist’s hard work and ambition come to fruition in these later images, illustrating how his work of the 1930s developed into the mature style for which he is internationally celebrated.
