The subject of Robert Adams´s latest book, An Old Forest Road, is the privilege of walking through a little-visited reserve of forest near the photographer’s home in the American Northwest. Beyond the reserves there are miles of clearcuts. Sunlight plays a pivotal role in this sequence of pictures, piercing through a density of branches and leaves to reveal the hidden shapes and structure of the forest. Shadows, too, are prominent; they occlude the way forward, rendering it a portal to a destination unknown. Robert Adams has been a landscape photographer for fifty years, concerned to acknowledge both the landscape’s mystery and our sometimes failed stewardship (Note de l’éditeur) ; photos en n.b.

Robert Adams : Los Angeles Spring
« The Los Angeles Robert Adams reveals here abounds in attenuated beauty, with eucalyptus, palm and orange trees holding out against the forces of asphalt and concrete. As in all of Mr. Adams’ work, the pictures have an idiosyncratic beauty and they serve as partial solace for the disharmonies they depict. » -Andy Grundberg, New York Times Book Review
