Special exhibition "Ansel Adams and the Legacy of the American Landscape:
Photographs from the NBMAA" opens on January 19.

Among the most revered photographers of the 20th century, Ansel Adams is
celebrated for his majestic black-and-white images of the American West. For
nearly 60 years, Adams explored and recorded the grandeur of nature, initiating
a lyrical way of viewing the world in photographs that convey beauty, awe, and
emotional drama. Advocating "pure" photography favoring sharp focus, Adams
placed great value on technical mastery and elevated photography as an art form
throughout the 20th century.

"Ansel Adams and the Legacy of the American Landscape: Photographs from the
NBMAA" considers Adams’ immeasurable contributions to photography, art, and
environmental advocacy over the past century. The exhibition places iconic
images by Adams in dialogue with works by photographers who practiced during and
after his life to provide deeper perspectives on themes central to his practice,
demonstrate the power of his legacy, and inspire consideration about the state
of the American landscape in the 21st century.

These are the final days to see special exhibition "American Realism Today."

Originally an abstract painter, Charles Yoder shifted to figurative art after a
pivotal night when he found himself standing in the shadows of a pine forest in
deep snow under a sparkling full moon. The simple beauty of what he saw led to
an epiphany: all that he had been looking for in painting was there before him.
Struck by that image, his subsequent work became a meditation on that glimpse.
He has worked ever since to share that exhilarating sensation.

Yoder was raised and educated in Europe and the United States, where he finished
his formal education with a BFA from Pratt Institute, Brooklyn. He teaches
printmaking at the School of Visual arts and served as director of Castelli
Graphics and curator to acclaimed artist Robert Rauschenberg.

See this and other photographs from Burtynsky's "Quarries" series in special
exhibition "Edward Burtynsky: Earth Observed."

Burtynsky's "Quarries" series explores the extraction of "dimension
stone"—blocks of granite or marble that are used in architecture or tombstones.
Measuring over 600 feet deep and among the largest "deep-hole" dimension
quarries in the world, the Rock of Ages granite quarry in Barre, Vermont,
immediately captivated Burtynsky and became the source of many of his most
iconic early images. Established in 1885, Rock of Ages now operates ten active
quarries in and beyond Barre; however, Burtynsky was fascinated by its abandoned
and inactive sites in particular, where nature can be seen reclaiming terrain.
Located throughout these quarry sites, stagnate pools of water radiate in deep
teal blue or bright turquoise colors created by algae that feed on the mineral
deposits in the water. Deceptively tranquil, the pools are often hundreds of
feet deep.

"Edward Burtynsky: Earth Observed" is on view at the NBMAA through April 16,
2023.
