Robert Adams: Contact

Robert Adams: Contact, brings together Adams’s photographs of the Western landscape with the original contact sheets from which they were selected.The contact sheets reproduce entire rolls of medium-format film and groups of 4×5 negatives, making visible every frame Adams considered. Each is paired with the photograph he ultimately chose, offering unprecedented insight into his working process and his search for precise arrangements of clouds, trees, roads, and light.
