Martin Parr is Britain’s most successful contemporary photographer. Purchased by the Tate Modern for the National Collection, and showcased in a major Hayward retrospective, Parr has captured thirty years of social change with a distinctively quirky and humorous eye. A self-confessed obsessive, who has taken over a million photographs through out his career, Parr remains a true English eccentric.
