This Martin Parr retrospective is rich in the wit and colour that Parr's work is best known for, but also offers the first serious assessment of the career of this major contemporary photographer. Parr combines an urge to document with a bemusement about social behaviour. Author Val Williams, a distinguished writer and curator, considers his better known later work in the context of his full career and in so doing shows how Parr's photographs have highlighted political and social change over the last thirty years.
While Parr began his career in Britain, he now has a large international following. This book offers the overview that many have eagerly awaited. It features fascinating previously unpublished early work, his startling and original 1974 installation Home Sweet Home, early black-and-white photographs of the people and places of Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire where he lived and worked in the 1970s, photographs from Ireland and Salford, and of course a selection of the very best images from all his published books including The Last Resort, The Cost of Living, Signs of the Times and Think of England (published by Phaidon). With unlimited access to Parr's archives and quoting from extensive interviews, Val Williams charts Parr's life and career, revealing insights into his influences and attitudes and assessing his importance within the worlds of art and photography.
"With photography, I like to create fiction out of reality. I try and do this by taking society's natural prejudice and giving this a twist." 我想,没有比他自己的解释更清楚明白的了。
评分可惜我的书是法文的。 以后还是尽量不买非英文的外版书了, 看不懂文字,书的内容就打折太多。

评分很久前买的这本,法文的,忘记是去年还是前面买的,当时翻了,啥都没看懂,然后就在豆瓣留了一句 “Martin Parr 的很多照片要看组图”,装了下b,拍过很多片,又看了很多大师作品,现在觉得整个摄影史上布列松的确比martin重要,但是对于现代来说martin却比布列松更加重要。
