Martin Parr will give an illustrated account of his career over the past 30 years. Afterwards, there will be an opportunity for you to discuss his work with him in a Q and A session.

Martin has developed an international reputation for his innovative imagery, his oblique approach to social documentary and his input to photographic culture. In 1994 he became a full member of Magnum. Martin's work divides his audience into those who think it cruelly exploitative of people and those who acknowledge that is simply reflecting what is there. www.martinparr.com
