Three important and beautiful series of black-and-white landscape photographs are showcased in Oceans, Rivers, and Skies: Ansel Adams, Robert Adams, and Alfred Stieglitz. This focus exhibition features 21 works in chronological order: ten by Alfred Stieglitz (1864–1946), five by Ansel Adams (1902–1984), and six by Robert Adams (b. 1937). The three series have never before been exhibited together, and Stieglitz's Music: A Sequence of Ten Cloud Photographs was last seen in its entirety in 1923.
