Introduction to the Show: American Silence: The Photographs of Robert Adams

For 50 years, Robert Adams has made compelling, provocative, and highly influential photographs that show the wonder and fragility of the American landscape, its inherent beauty, and the inadequacy of our response to it. Sarah Greenough, senior curator and head of the department of photographs at the National Gallery of Art, introduces American Silence: The Photographs of Robert Adams that celebrates the art of this seminal photographer and explores the reverential way he looks at the world around him and the almost palpable silence of his work. On view at the National Gallery of Art, May 29 – October 2, 2022

The exhibition and catalog are made possible through the leadership support of the Trellis Fund and a generous gift from Jane P. Watkins.

The exhibition is also made possible in part by The Shared Earth Foundation. Additional support is provided by Randi and Bob Fisher, Wes and Kate Mitchell, Nion McEvoy, Greg and Aline Gooding, and the James D. and Kathryn K. Steele Fund for Photography.
