Now a century after Ansel Adams took his first photograph, we almost cannot see nature except through his eyes. Yet those early photographs showed the world a nature it had never seen before: a revolutionary, brilliant refocusing on the Wilderness, the Whole Wilderness, and Nothing but the Wilderness, so help him God. Ansel Adams’ art was a radical act of the human imagination, to which we are all heirs today. In this course of striking masterworks and commentary, we seek to find our way back to the beginning, to see the world afresh through the lens of our greatest photographic artist.
