Life’s a Beach in Gras 

June 18, 2019 
by Martin Parr 
Martin Parr’s study of beaches goes to Southern France
Martin Parr has been photographing beach life over many
decades, documenting all aspects of this tradition including
close ups of sun bathers, swimming dips and picnics in the
UK as well as in countries as far apart as China, Argentina
and Thailand.

This exhibition demonstrates Parr’s engagement with a
cherished subject matter, where all absurdities and quirky
National behaviours seamlessly fuse together.
