Then and Now photographs of cities have an honourable tradition, one of the most notable being Douglas Levere's recent reshooting (from the original sites) of Berenice Abbot's Changing New York project of the 1930s using an identical 10x8
Century camera.
Photographer Adam Lee documents a changing Adelaide with more freedom, reminding us of an elegant Victorian city that was, as well as conveying some of the vitality of modern life. While using similar viewpoints to late nineteenth and early twentieth century photographers Captain Samuel Sweet, Ernest Gall, Francis Gabriel, Gordon Walker and John Gazard,
Lee's modern lenses enable him to capture exciting close-up details of architectural and sculptural forms, including the Doric, Corinthian and lonic columns of major public buildings. Among the buildings given special attention are the Magistrates and Supreme Courts, the Town Hall, General Post Office, Electra House, St. Peter's Cathedral, the Adelaide Arcade and the Beehive Corner.
