Georgia O'Keeffe and Ansel Adams

Georgia O’Keeffe and Ansel Adams: Natural Affinities, an exhibition that brings together, for the first time, approximately 97 works by two of America’s best-known artists.

"The professional photographer takes assignments from 'without'... The creative photographer takes assignments from 'within'.

"A great photographer is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed and is, thereby, a true manifestation of what one feels about life in its entirety."

Quotes by Ansel Adams. But, I think both of these remarkable artists work from within. That is why the incredible canvases of O'Keeffe and the impeccable prints of Adams illuminate such emotion and immediacy of an inner moment.

WOW! What a great combination. It's a traveling exhibit. Check out the exhibition dates and places below.
