Members' Reception: Of Love and Revelation

“Some photographers take reality... and impose the domination of their own thought and spirit. Others come before reality more tenderly and a photograph to them is an instrument of love and revelation.” —Ansel Adams

Of Love and Revelation: Learning Photography from the Land explores California’s tradition of landscape photography as the outcome of relationships—between students and teachers; between the artist and the camera; and between all of us and the land. The exhibition features the work of Ansel Adams, Norman Locks, Karolina Karlic, Shelby Graham, Binh Danh, and Edgar Cruz.

This exhibition of new, contemporary photographic work gives us the opportunity to see the land we live in like we’ve never seen it before. Of Love and Revelation: Learning Photography from the Land is guest curated by Gabriel Salomon Mindel.
