Signed; Martin Parr - Grand Paris - 2014

For thirty-five years, Martin Parr has been photographing everyday scenes with a knack for catching us off guard. Whether we’re eating, sunbathing or kissing, he senses the vulnerability inherent in each of us.
This time, in the form of a genuine map of Paris (special taxi edition), with its original cover and a 100% reliable street index, Martin Parr invites us to follow him around the capital. For three years, at the request of the Maison Européenne de la
Photographie (MEP), Martin Parr turned his attention to Parisians and photographed the Champs-Élysées, tourists, Bastille Day, fashion shows, the Paris Air Show at Le Bourget, Paris Plages, museums and art fairs, and the agricultural fair.
The result: some forty previously unpublished images and a few essential earlier photographs—a genuine work in progress on Paris.
