A glimmer of Peace in Jim Marshall's 60s photos

From 1961 to 1968, Jim Marshall traveled the United States photographing musicians and music events like the Newport and Monterey Jazz Festivals. Along the way, he documented his encounters with a rapidly proliferating symbol first associated with the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and now known as the ubiquitous peace sign. Featured photograph, made in New York, 1962, is reproduced from Jim Marshall: Peace, the new collection from Reel Art Press. See the work in person at Shepard Fairey’s Subliminal Projects in Los Angeles, now through December 9.
