I treated myself to some time at the Center for Creative Photography on the campus of the University of Arizona yesterday. I particularly enjoyed the exhibit Ansel Adams: Arizona and the West, which includes nearly forty works pulled from the Ansel Adams Archive at the Center.
The Center for Creative Photography is an archive and research center. They retain the archives of Ansel Adams and other great 20th-century photographers—over fifty archives in all. Ansel Adams had a special connection to Arizona, the most significant being his 1975 decision to co-found, with Dr. John Schaefer, the Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona, and place his
entire photographic collection and archive in their care. You can see 2664 pieces of Ansel Adams work at http://ccp.uair.arizona.edu/item/4538.
