Congratulations to the High Museum of Art in Atlanta! Designed by Marquand’s Jeff Wincapaw, Road to Freedom: Photographs of the Civil Rights Movement 1956–1968 was recently named one of Artforum’s best books of 2008. Contributing editor James Meyer writes:

The struggle for civil rights is the most iconic of 1960s stories, and the Supreme Court’s 1954 decision in Brown v. Board of Education, followed the next year by Rosa Parks’s refusal to cede her seat to a white man on a bus in Montgomery, Alabama, are often cited as the era’s inaugural events. Road to Freedom: Photographs of the Civil Rights Movement 1956–1968 (High Museum of Art), the catalogue for an extraordinary exhibition organized by Julian Cox, the curator of photography at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, is an important contribution to the visual record of the movement.
