I respect your opinion which you are entitled to but I am also entitled to have mine.Parr depicts the mediocrity / ordinariness in a way I like.

I cannot quite put my finger on it.Everyone is entitled to have an opinion , I don't like Martin Parr or his work.
Jones Griffiths was right, Parr is one British photographer I can't stand, and him rising to the top at Magnum is a triumph of the mediocre.

You might be thinking of..... Brian Duffy.?isn't he the guy who dumped his whole film archive in the trash?

In contrast, Mr Duffy was an excellent photographer.![]()
Where did you read that?
Would increase price of his existing prints.
In any case I'd guess most everybody's film gets trashed eventually.
Parr books are where most of the $ value lies.
That is entirely irrelevant. Magnum doesn't intend to appeal to every taste. Many photographers are honored by membership.
The English do satire so well.
I'm with you on Ansel Adams, maybe I'm just not romantic enoughi never "got" ansel adams photography... then i got into b&w photography and it became clear - not my taste, but i got it and appreciate it as his artistic expression. i also have to wait on martin parr.... hmmm.![]()
+1 !!His work is bloody good.
