Trees have been a subject of lifelong engagement for Robert Adams, and no species has enthralled him more than the cottonwood. Revered by the Plains Indians, native cottonwoods animate the landscape unforgettably but their thirst for water and lack of commercial value have made them common targets for removal by agribusiness and housing developers. Some of Adams´s earliest pictures were of cottonwoods, and he photographed them throughout the thirty-five years he lived in Colorado.

Originally published by the Smithsonian in 1994 as a part of the series "Photographers at Work," this new edition of "Cottonwoods" has been expanded and enlarged.
Robert Adams, born in 1937 in New Jersey, has photographed the geography of the
American West for over forty years. His work has been widely exhibited both in
Europe and the United States, including in the seminal 1975 exhibition "New
Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape." His more than forty
publications include "What We Bought", "Our Lives and Our Children", and "Turning Back". Steidl has published "Gone?" (2010), "Tree Line" (2010) and "The Place We Live" (2013). Adams is a recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship, the Spectrum International Prize for Photography, the Hasselblad Award, two National Endowment for the Arts fellowships and the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize.
