Tetons by Ansel Adams
I’ve always been a fan Ansel Adams and his stunning landscape photography. He turned 100 in 2002 and to commemorate that event the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art launched an exhibit “Ansel Adams at 100.” Unfortunately, living in Chicago very few if any of us (or our students) would have been able to attend.
Now however, the Museum has decided to recreate the exhibit online with interactive content including photos, audio interviews, and video with the artist. Its incredibly well done and really a must see in my mind.
This site is a great resource for middle school photography units, or art appreciation at the elementary schools. Outside of Art this would be a great place to see stunning photos of the American wilderness in Social Studies, or to gather information for a bibliography project.
Hats off to Free Tech for Teachers for finding this great resource.
