Robert Adams' obsession with the decay and beauty of the American landscape is on display at the National Gallery's exhibition 'American Silence: The Photographs of Robert Adams.'

Do you see the message in the photo? Notice that the word FRONTIER is missing its final R? The letter has disappeared just like the landscape itself: lost to over-development, clear-cutting, various human abuses. The tree announces its survival, shadowing the garage door in what could be a community of such houses, built on land once covered in trees.
Robert Adams wrote,"go to the landscape that frightens you the most, and take pictures until you're not scared anymore." Greenough says he meant that we must confront the world that's developing around us."He had to photograph it until he could come to terms with it." And find the beauty. Here, the landscape is wiped out by ticky-tacky houses. Adams shoots them at an angle that celebrates the architectural forms, and they're umbrella-ed by"a glorious sky.
