Hotshoe Magazine Issue 208 (Martin Parr) is available on loremnotipsum.com. Martin Parr, one of the most important figures in British photography, is well known for documenting the English social classes. A prominent member of Magnum Photos since 1994, he changed how we see British society and documentary photography with his use of colour rather than black-and-white.
With the help of the Martin Parr Foundation, we’ve put together a collection of portfolios from his vast body of work, as well as an extended interview by Aaron Schuman, personal essays from his contemporaries including Alec Soth, Anna Fox, and Trent Parke, and a new story by Adam Ganz in response to Parr’s Autoportraits in Crude Metaphors.
Hotshoe Magazine has been in print since 1977. Renowned as a cutting edge photography magazine, it is well known in an industry that has changed dramatically since the 1970s. In 2002, Hotshoe Magazine was reinvented as a showcase of photographic portfolios, with a multitude of voices and opinion that include some of the most influential names in photography today, writing in one of the few truly independent publications, and distributed throughout the world. Forty years after the launch of the print magazine Hotshoe 333 launched as a curated space to show work, as well as offer an array of photo books, speciality coffee, and a simple seasonal menu of food and wine, including organic and biodynamic, focusing on quality, with an emphasis on limiting waste.
