Thank you for your listings in the ACP 11 Festival Guide!

Last Road to Freedom @ the High Museumweek marked the opening of the High Museum’s incredible “Road to Freedom” exhibition of Civil Rights photographs, and ACP had the opportunity to interview a few of the included photographers.

There are two takes below, the first from Larry Fink, whose photograph of Coretta Scott King is featured, and the second, from Builder Levy, who has a couple of photographs in the exhibition, including one of the Memphis Sanitation Workers strike in 1968, following Martin Luther King’s assassination. Click to play, or use the download links.

“Both as a historical marker, and as an unbelievably beautifully crafted/curated thing, to work the pendulistic swing between asthetics and abject content, [this exhibit] has been beautifully crafted by Julian. Really, it’s a significant show. It’s totally moving… …it’s coming at a very fortuitous time for our country.” - Larry Fink
