Ansel Adams at UC Berkeley in 1966. The artist peers at us, the people of UC’s future.

In this image taken by Ansel Adams at UC Berkeley in 1966, we see the artist peering at us, the people of UC’s future. The Fiat Lux project was commissioned by UC President Clark Kerr to emphasize the prospective view for the University and to “present a sense of the opportunities which lie ahead.” Photograph by Ansel Adams.
