Around Group f.64:
Legacies and Counterhistories in Bay Area Photography

Floor 3

This exhibition takes work made in the 1930s by members of Group f.64 as a nexus from which to explore various moments in the history of Bay Area photography. The group, which counted Ansel Adams, Edward Weston and Imogen Cunningham among its founding members, was devoted to emphasizing the aesthetic qualities that set photography apart from other art forms. Although it was short-lived, Group f.64 had a lasting impact on photography in the Bay Area and beyond. Drawn largely from the museum’s collection, the exhibition features photographs by all 11 of the original members of Group f.64, as well as work made before and after by a wide range of different artists. It narrates the group’s legacy and counterhistories, including photographers it inspired as well as those creating their own Bay Area aesthetic. In January 2025, the exhibition will expand to offer examples of historical and contemporary works related to the members of Group f.64 and other strands of regional photographic practice.
