“Luxury” heter Martin Parrs senaste projekt. Den här gången är det den internationella överklassen som porträtteras:
for his new series ‘luxury’, which is being premiered at the haus der kunst, the award-winning artist photographed fashion shows, horse races as well as art and luxury fairs in international locations such as dubai, durban or moscow – but also munich’s oktoberfest. in ‘luxury’ the international jet-set can be observed how they proudly present the regalia of new money and opulence. using the means of the grotesque, parr is consistent in addressing the phenomenon of a new international upper class following his earlier projects on the working and middle class.
Låter riktigt spännande. Visas på Haus der Kunst, München 7 maj - 17 augusti.
