New law school exhibit takes viewers on a visual adventure

An exhibit of 18 large color photographs of landscapes of the Northwest and Hawaii by award-winning Portland photographer Adrian Klein is now on view at the UO School of Law.

“Essential Nature” offers panoramic adventure, mountain and ocean photographs on canvas and aluminum. The images are on display at the Oregon Law Gallery, on the second floor of the Knight Law Center, through June 11 from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.

Klein’s photography often is the result of long backpacking hikes into national parks and wilderness areas. The beauty of flowers, landscapes and running water come through in his images. As Klein explains, ‘My love of nature has nurtured my love of photography.”
