mmmmmm... donuts.




Martin Parr will be in Chicago at Stephen Daiter this Friday for an opening of an exhibition that spans 30 years of his work. Parr has no less than 50 monographs to his credit. I have a copy of his Mexico monograph and am hoping he'll do me the honor of signing it. What a pleasure it has been though to have Eggleston and now Parr in a matter of weeks gracing Chicago with their presence and great exhibitions of their work. I don't think I'm going out on a limb when I say this but... if you don't like Martin Parr, you might not like making photographs.
