Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Martin Parr is the brilliant, understated, enigmatic British artist who transformed photography as we know it. As the world s leading documentary photographer, he has spent decades observing, ironizing, questioning, and celebrating modern life, and his photobooks take us from Scotland to Australia, Senegal to California, and everyone from his 740k Instagram followers (15% US) to former Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele and Elton John (who is a big Parr enthusiast having used a series of Parrphotographs as the backdrop for his Goodbye Yellow Brick Road tour). Parr is unusual a titan of the art world who is also beloved by the general public. In his bid to capture the brilliant, bittersweet absurdity of modern life, he transformed art photography with his compositions of deadpan, mundane snippets of life rich in humor, irony, and questioning. It was Parr who brought outdoor flash and color into the exhibition room (and was promptly expelled by Magnum Photos for doing so he later became Magnum s president). He has received numerous prizes and lifetime achievement awards all over the world. He also uses his platform to champion emerging photographers through the Martin Parr Foundation, and his work is, in turn, celebrated and supported by younger artists. The book features two master storytellers Martin Parr and the oral historian Wendy Jones joining forces to create a uniquely vibrant portrait of one of the world s best photographers. What follows is a journey only Martin could devise: a journey which, in one hundred carefully selected pictures and stories, will showcase the extraordinary depth and range of Martin s work; and tell the story of Martin s life, his practice, and his philosophy (as well as his collection of Saddam Hussein watches). A landmark book whose publication is a major cultural moment in celebration of one of the world s most important photographers who straddles both the art world as well as the popular culture space. A future classic. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
