Review from Leigh G.
10/31/2010
The strangest, but one of the most wonderful, photography galleries I've ever been to. The gallery is in an old Victorian house, not far from the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, and is a mix of a focused exhibition, and walls simply lined with framed great photographs. I was truly a kid in a candy store.
The work in the gallery veers toward work with mass appeal, as opposed to anything really cutting edge, so there's a lot more Ansel Adams than something like David LaChapelle, but beyond those names that everyone knows like Ansel Adams or Annie Liebovitz, there's works by masters like Lee Friedlander, Elliott Erwitt, and great masters of the 19th century, especially the American West.
It might feel a little strange to wander through room after room of an old house, but it's well worth it because there are treasures everywhere.
Art galleries are free, and it's nice to walk around and enjoy the museum-quality work lining these walls, as opposed to some of the more designer-oriented galleries elsewhere in town. -

This is a wonderful gallery, away from the sensory overload of Canyon Road, with a superb collection of photographs from Ansel Adams and other notables. I couldn't believe how many Adams photographs they had. And you can see them all for free! Leigh G. did a better job of describing the gallery than I think I could manage, so I won't rehash, but would encourage anyone with even a passing interest in photography to check out the Andrew Smith Gallery.
