Ansel Adams’ portrait of stately redwoods and their tender saplings in “Redwoods, Founder Grove” conveys the natural lifecycle of the ancient trees. Adams (1902 – 1984), a dedicated conservationist, used the beauty of his photos to encourage environmentalism. His mastery of composition and detail transformed photography into art, enabling him to establish a department of photography at New York’s Museum of Modern Art.
Award-winning photographic artist and environmentalist, Ansel Adams’ career took off in 1941 when the U.S. government hired him to photograph the country’s national parks. His awe-inspiring works reveal his technical mastery and rank Adams among the world’s most acclaimed landscape photographers. His promotion of photography as fine art helped to establish a permanent photography department at the New York Metropolitan Museum. A staunch champion of wilderness preservation, Adams helped foster an environmental consciousness during his 37-year tenure on the Sierra Club’s Board of Directors.
