The Sea Beach 2015

Robert Adams made this photograph, "The Sea Beach", with a camera, sometime around now. Look at the balance he strikes between the roiling sky and the flat plane of the sea. There’s something so satisfying in his choices here. I find my eye drawn to the texture in the sky. The way the light filters through those heavy clouds, it’s almost sculptural. It’s a lesson in how to make something from almost nothing, how a limited palette can be so rich. This reminds me of some of the black and white work of Gerhard Richter. It speaks to the idea that art isn't about answers. It's more about how we keep the conversation going. What do you see?
