Signed Martin Parr Magnum "Knowsley Safari Park, England" Print, 1990
About the Item
For sale an original signed museum-quality Magnum 6x6 photographic print by MARTIN PARR (British, born 1952).
Titled "Knowsley Safari Park, England, Great Britain. 1990", this Magnum print was a time-limited edition that was only available to purchase for a period of five days.
The work is signed to the back together with an affixed archival label which carries the image’s accompanying text and is printed on Fuji Crystal Archive Matte paper.
The accompanying text by the artist reads:
“Knowsley Safari Park is a drive-thru. You can imagine you are moving through the jungle, with great views of the wild game. I was being driven when I took this photo, and was asking my driver to reverse, to veer right and left. So it became quite a game and left us in hysterics.”
Martin Parr thinks of his photography as an ongoing investigation of human interaction, leisure, and context. Parr is interested in how people live and present themselves to others, particularly in how they display their values. His subjects have included the spectators of a championship polo game, everyday tourists and inhabitants of Switzerland, and goings-on at one of the oldest schools in England. He has a knack for capturing events that are both quirky and mundane and in attitudes both critical and humorous. Parr also has the unusual practice of presenting the same photographs in different contexts—as art objects or art books, as well as in advertisements and as editorial work.
This is a magnificent opportunity to own a highly collectable original signed piece of work by one of the most renowned photographers of our day.
