Ansel Adams: Divine performance
No full textThe background research was partly funded by a British Academy Postgraduate Studentship. Written on the basis of primary research in the Ansel Adams Archive of the Center for Creative Photography, Tucson, Arizona, Bancroft Library, UC Berkeley, Yosemite Museum, and archives of Ansel Adams Trust. The manuscript was read for Yale University Press by John Szarkowski (former head of Photography, MoMA, NY), Sandra Sammataro Phillips (curator of photographs, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art), Mark Haworth-Booth (Professor of Photography, University of the Arts, formerly curator of photographs, Victoria and Albert Museum).The first scholarly book on Ansel Adams's work from an art historical perspective, this is a critical study of his landscape photographs, investigating the aesthetic, philosophical and spiritual underpinnings of his work in the context of the intellectual and creative influences informing his art. The book sheds light on the contributions of scientific, literary, and artistic individuals who inspired Adams, and provides a detailed interpretation of his photographs, establishing the relation between the images and his ethical and artistic commitments.Reviewed; History of Photography 27:1 (Spring 2003) (ISSN 0308-7298); Exposure 37:2 (2003) (ISSN 0098-8863). An invited lecture, Hayward Gallery, London, in conjunction with exhibition, Ansel Adams at 100. Some explorations into Adams's ink-printing of his photographs and production of his fine books (especially chapters 2, 5) led to an AHRC small grant (AH/D503329/1) May 2006-April 2007, Aesthetic Aspects of the Photomechanical Reproduction of Continuous Tone for the Photographs of Ansel Adams. An exhibition,"Ansel Adams in Hawaii" was also generated

Cardboard Boxes and Invisible Fences: Homelessness and Public Space in City of Victoria v. Adams
No full textThis paper analyzes the recent decision of the British Columbia Supreme Court in City of Victoria v. Adams. Specifically, the paper considers three interlocking themes that emerge from the decision: (1) the nature of “public space” in the context of homelessness; (2) the autonomy of homeless individuals; and (3) the meaning and value of the “homeless body.” With reference to each theme, the paper explores how the judgment in Adams grapples with the purportedly normative “Law and Economics”- type arguments put forth by the City of Victoria. By drawing on insights from Critical Legal Studies theory and feminist jurisprudence, the paper shows that Adams subverts and destabilizes certain “normative” perspectives about public space and homelessness. However, the paper goes on to argue that in its conflation of “cardboard box” shelters with the “invisible fences” envisioned by Justice Wilson in Morgentaler, Adams presents an ambiguous victory for anti-poverty advocates. The paper argues that the decision may serve to increase barriers for a broader and more progressive understanding of section 7 in the future.
Dans cet article, on analyse le jugement récent de la Cour Suprême de la Colombie Britannique dans City of Victoria v. Adams. Plus précisément, on considère trois thèmes qui ressortent du jugement et qui s’entrecroisent : (1) la nature d’«espace public» dans le contexte de l’itinérance; (2) l’autonomie des sans-abri; et (3) la signification et la valeur du «corps sans abri». En rapport avec chaque thème, on explore comment l’arrêt Adams compose avec les arguments supposément normatifs du genre «La Loi et l’Économie» avancés par la ville de Victoria. En s’inspirant de perceptions tirées de la théorie des Critical Legal Studies et de la jurisprudence féministe, l’auteure démontre que l’arrêt Adams subvertit et déséquilibre certaines perspectives «normatives» au sujet de l’espace public et l’itinérance. Cependant, elle poursuit en arguant que de fondre les abris «en boîtes en carton» et les «barrières invisibles» contemplées par la juge Wilson dans Morgentaler, comme le fait l’arrêt Adams, présente une victoire ambiguë pour ceux et celles qui luttent contre la pauvreté. L’auteure soutient que le jugement pourrait contribuer à augmenter les barrières devant une compréhension plus large et plus progressive de l’article 7 à l’avenir
