Tucked into the heart of Alabama is the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts and its stellar collection of Contemporary African American Quilts. The collection focuses on two different types of quilts. First, there are pictorial quilts. These quilts tell a story and have more literal representation in their imagery; they are illustrative. Yvonne Wells is heavily showcased in the collection, with such powerful quilts as Civil Rights in the South III and Dove Descending.
