Landscapes

The McMichael Gallery has put together the photography of Edward Burtynsky (1955-) with that of Ansel Adam (1902-1984).


Both photograph landscape.

Adams is best known for his dramatic views of Yosemite National Park in USA- his still life, panoramic views and distant landscapes.


Burtynsky's photographs engage us to think about our relationship to nature.



Both photographers' works compliment the permanent collection of the Group of Seven -a group of  Canadian landscape painters from 1920 -1933.



The exhibit goes till September 29, 2013. Make a day of it and plan to have lunch in Kleinburg.
