Starting today, Mainers can take a cross-country road trip and travel only as far as the Portland Museum of Art.
“Weston: Leaves of Grass” opens on the museum’s second floor and runs through March 13. It features 53 photographs shot by the legendary Edward Weston (1886-1958). Each of the rarely exhibited black-and-white images in the show was produced in 1941, when Weston embarked on a trip across America to illustrate Walt Whitman’s epic poetry book, “Leaves of Grass.”
