Ansel Adams: Majestic Lands

Ticketed Exhibition (see details below)

Ansel Adams: Majestic Lands features 44 works by the iconic American landscape photographer. This exhibition includes about two-thirds of “The Museum Set,” a collection of photographs that Adams himself selected late in life as his best works.

During a career that spanned five decades, Adams (1902–1984) became known as one of America’s most recognizable landscape photographers and one of the country’s most respected environmentalists. His work centers on his deeply held conviction that place matters and that the world around us is a marvel to behold, to respect, and to honor.

Presented in dialogue with Victoria Sambunaris: Altered Lands, these exhibitions trace an evolving vision of the American landscape from untouched wilderness to places transformed by human presence.

Please note: Ansel Adams: Majestic Lands and Victoria Sambunaris: Altered Lands are ticketed exhibitions. One ticket gives visitors access to both exhibitions. No advance registration is required. Tickets may be purchased at the Museum. General admission remains free and gives visitors access to all other areas of the Museum.
Tickets: Non-Members: $10 adults/$5 children | FREE Museum Members
