Revised edition of Small World by Martin Parr. Medium format hardback in new condition.

About

First published in 1996 Small World is one of the most popular and most important of Martin Parr’s books. It has been in print continuously since its first publication, thirty years ago. This revised edition includes more than 80 photographs and features many new photos as well as Martin Parr’s most iconic images.

It is a biting, very funny satire in which Parr looks at tourism worldwide, exposing the increasingly homogenous ‘global culture’ where in the search for different cultures those same cultures are destroyed. In a world of ‘carbon footprints’, global warming and climate crisis, the issues that Parr raised almost thirty years ago when the book was first published are even more relevant today.
