Jeffrey Conley is one of the world’s most renowned contemporary landscape photographers. Whether in the United States, Iceland, New Zealand or the Engadine in Switzerland – his images do not depict the landscape; they reveal nature, experienced as a spiritual place. Ansel Adams, one of the most important landscape photographers in the medium’s history, clearly indicated in his personal letters that since his experience of nature was fundamentally mystical, his most persistent artistic problem was how to convert that experience into physical evidence. Jeffrey Conley could also as easily have made this observation. Aligned with the important tradition of landscape photography in the United States, he joins his great predecessor, for he, too, is an ambassador whose work embodies a plea to restore the mindfulness and respect of nature.
