Contemporary Art GalleryMartin Parr captures the essence of surbubia. His pictures, although perhaps not the most aesthetically composed, are fascinating portraits of modern society and all its flaws. He is there with camera at just the right moment, a look here, a glance there, his 'accidental' backgrounds chosen meticulously. Some accuse him of being cynical but he is afterall photographing real life in all its glorious reality.
