“I've covered more than four Pride marches and it's still one of the best days to photograph in Bristol. I enjoy taking photos at the moment when people are gathering for the march; that allows me to photograph superb handmade banners and isolate them to give them more presence. It's fantastic to see how much Pride marches are appreciated today by so many people. That wasn't the case in their early days.” – Martin Parr

Martin Parr has been one of the most recognizable contemporary photographers, famous for his ironic and lucid view of consumer society, tourism and everyday habits. In the mold of Steve McCurry and Alex Webb, he masters color and composition, but with a more satirical approach. In the tradition of Magnum, alongside Elliot Erwitt, Robert Capa or Bruce Gilden, he observes the human with frankness. His work also engages with W. Eugene Smith, Willy Ronis and the provocative elegance of Helmut Newton.
