Martin Parr. Planète Parr

Interview de Martin Parr par le Musée de Jeu de Paume

french subtitles


If I should suggest you an exhibition for this month, it will be this one: PLANÈTE PARR, la collection de Martin Parr (PARRWORLD, the collection of Martin Parr) at the Jeu de Paume in Paris.

The exhibition proposes a dialogue between MARTIN PARR's photographs and his vast collection of objects. It reveals the keenness of PARR's vision and his fascination with the everyday, and feature a mixture of the personal and the collective.

This is the first exhibition to feature his extraordinary collection of photography books and prints but also large numbers of objects and curiosities closely reflecting political and social events (Saddam Hussein watches,...) or the absurdity and vacuity of our consumer society.

If you are in Paris or if you plan to go in Paris, don't miss this show (until 27 september)...and if not, take 10' of your time to watch this very good interview of Mister PARR.

Have a nice day!
