After exhibitions in London, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Boston, 'Jim Marshall: Jazz Festival' can now be seen in at Stadthalle Gütersloh. The photography in the exhibition are from the illustrated book "Jim Marshall: Jazz Festival," and show Marshall's unique talent and lifelong quest for the perfect snapshot.
A gift to the people of California, the American Civics series is a momentous addition to the California State Library’s collection. Jim Marshall's powerful black-and-white images highlighting five social justice issues in '60s connect us to our shared history. At the same time, Shepard Fairey's stunning reinterpretations of those images remind us how relevant the messaging is today.
This art will be on permanent display in the second floor conference room, where it can be visited by school groups, researchers learning about California history, and the public at large.
'The origin story of the peace sign' is an insightful review of PEACE (Reel Art Press), the celebrated new book of Jim Marshall's photography, which chronicles the peace sign's evolution and significance.
In Los Angeles, a showcase of never-before-seen photographs by legendary photographer Jim Marshall documents signs of peace in America from 1961 to 1969. The exhibition follows the September 2017 book release of these photographs in Peace (Reel Art Press), featuring a foreword by Shepard Fairey, who will also exhibit two original works inspired by the book. In conjunction with the exhibition, Subliminal Projects invited emerging artists to submit works inspired by the peace symbol and Marshall’s photographs on Instagram.
On exhibit at the San Francisco Art Exchange, Jim Marshall's stunning black-and-white photographic studies of the peace sign, a symbol embraced by the counterculture movement, which remains relevant as the universal message of free speech, opposition to war, nuclear disarmament, and hope. These limited-edition prints are from the critically acclaimed book, Peace (Reel Art Press), which features a foreword by artist Shepard Fairey, text by music writer Peter Doggett, and an afterword by singer, peace-activist, and longtime friend of Jim Marshall, Joan Baez.
