Tony Ray-Jones - Tony Ray-Jones - 2013

Featuring works drawn from the Tony Ray-Jones archive and rarely seen early photographs by Martin Parr, this exhibition explored the relationship between these two important photographers and their shared fascination with the English. Intrigued by the eccentricities of English social customs, Tony Ray-Jones spent the latter half of the 1960s traveling around England, photographing what he saw as a disappearing way of life. Amusing yet melancholic, these images had a profound influence on photographer Martin Parr, who made a selection from our Tony Ray-Jones archive for this exhibition, including more than 50 previously unseen photographs. Parr’s selection was shown alongside his rarely seen work, The Non-Conformists, which documents a declining traditional way of life in 1970s Hebden Bridge. This book would have covered Tony Ray-Jones’s traveling exhibition throughout England, from 2015 to 2018.
