Iconic photographers'
work on display

odern Masters: Group f/64 will run at the Morris Museum in
Augusta through July 21. The exhibit features 44 photographs
from five legendary photographers: Ansel Adams, Willard Van Dyke,
Brett Weston, Edward Weston and Imogen Cunningham.
Founded in 1932 by Adams, Group f/64 was an informal association of San Francisco Bay area photographers who promoted a new
style of artistic, soft-focus photography. After the Great Depression,
the group dissolved.
The exhibit includes works from photographers who are now
considered some of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
