Description
The famed and anonymous faces of Martin Parr's portraiture
Portraiture emerges time and again as an abiding feature of the work of Martin Parr (born 1952), who inspires questions about how we live, present ourselves and view the world around us through his unique and characteristically entertaining photographs. This collection of 25 characteristic Parr postcards includes a selection of recent portraits by the photographer, featuring an array of both famous and anonymous faces. Among the celebrities portrayed here are Ai Weiwei, Grayson Perry, Vivienne Westwood, Zandra Rhodes, Tracey Emin and Zadie Smith; also included are a self-portrait and portraits of people at the races, at the beach and rowing.
