The PhotoBath team were shocked and saddened to learn about the sudden death of local hero Martin Parr.
A true giant of social documentary, Martin was based down the road in Bristol, a true legend and such a nice guy. He always had time for a chat and supported a range of photography practices via his foundation – with regular events including exhibitions, talks and the annual PhotoBook festival that we regularly attended.
For the first time this year PhotoBath also participated in the BOP (Books On Photography) weekend where we saw Martin still going around and talking to stallholders.
His legacy will continue through his foundation and incredible body of work.
RIP Martin
PhotoBath team
