Ansel Adams at 100

Published in conjuction with an international exhibition starting in August 2001 at the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco - Adams' home town.

The exhibition and book are intended to present, along with a fresh look at Adams' classic images, an unexpected and sometimes unfamiliar body of Adams' work, offering a serious effort to reconsider Adams' contribution to the art of photography in half a century.

A critical and interpretive essay on Adams by John Szarkowski explores Adams as an important modern artist.

The book features 110 tritone images printed on a special paper, a linen cloth binding with matching slipcase and a reproduction print (suitable for framing) embossed with the AA seal and inserted in an envelope at the back of the book.
