Ansel Adams -- Fiat Lux

http://bookweb.cwis.uci.edu:8042/AdamsHome.html

Fiat Lux is an online exhibition which contains photographs of the University of California by Ansel Adams. The exhibit contains a brief introductory essay, 'About Ansel Adams -- Fiat Lux,' documenting the background of how Adams agreed to produce a 'current portrait' of the University of California for the centennial celebration in 1968; an art historical essay on Adams and a chronology; and sound files of Adams discussing his photographs. The exhibition is grouped into five areas -- northern UC campuses, southern UC campuses, agricultural centers and field stations, natural reserve system, and organized research units. The organizers have also compiled an online bookstore with related items for sale.
