Born Free, Born Equal - Joseph Maida and Ansel Adams


For this anniversary edition of his collaboration with Ansel Adams' Manzanar archive, Maida pairs his first Act, the 2018 edition of his book Born Free and Equal: The Story of Loyal _________- Americans, with his second Act, Printed Media x Printed Justice: Exhibition-in-a-Box, an adaptable, modular, DIY show of political posters from 2020, which he gifted as a call to action to institutions with a longstanding commitment to Adams' work including New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), which originally exhibited Adams' Manzanar series in 1944.


With Born Free, Born Equal, Joseph Maida continues to illuminate the past's relationship to the present's social and political climate in the United States, highlighting the importance of revisiting historic art and archives with the knowledge and resources of today.

Adams, Ansel Easton: - "

Ansel Easton Adams (February 20, 1902 - April 22, 1984) was an American photographer and environmentalist. Adams began to photograph professionally in 1930, and in 1932 was a founding member of the f/64 group in San Francisco, California. In 1940 he created the photography department at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, New York, along with Beaumont Newhall and David McAlpin. From 1942 to 1944 Adams acted as the photographic adviser to the United States Army and photographed at the Manzanar Relocation Center. In1944, his work from this project was exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York and published in the book, Born Free and Equal. In 1962 Adams moved to Carmel, California where he founded the Friends of Photography in 1967. He continued to document the landscape of the American West.
