Martin Parr was one of the best-known documentary photographers of his generation. His passion for Photography had no boundaries, as it became evident in his own practice. But just as impressive as his immense photographic legacy and his very public persona is the work done behind the scenes.
Utterly Lazy and Inttentive: Martin Parrr in Words and Pictures is the definitive account of Martin’s life and a record of our changing world, a world that he documented relentlessly since childhood.
'It was a way for me to understand my progress as a photographer: to see what has changed, and what has stayed the same, both in my work and in the world. It has allowed me to see how everything is connected’ - Martin Parr

– Peter Mackay, Scotland’s Makar
