Since taking up photography in the mid-1960s, Robert Adams (born
1937) has quietly become one of the most influential chroniclers of
the evolving American landscape. Carefully edited by Adams from a
remarkable body of work that spans over four decades, What Can We
Believe Where? Photographs of the American West, 1965-2005 presents
a narrative sequence of more than 100 tritone images that reveals a
steadfast concern for mankind's increasingly tragic relationship
with the natural world. Adams's understated yet arresting pictures
of the vast Colorado plains, the rapid suburbanization of the
Denver and Colorado Springs areas, and the ecological devastation
of the Pacific Northwest region of the United States register with
subtle precision the complex and often fragile beauty of the scenes
they depict. The most accessible collection of Adams's work to
date, this compact and thought-provoking volume is an essential
addition to the bookshelves of students, photographers, and anyone
interested in the recent history of the American West and its wider
implications. Distributed for the Yale University Art Gallery
