This limited edition photobook is dedicated to the increasingly controversial subject of smoking. Spanning the length of Parr’s career – with photographs from 1970 to 2019 – this book highlights the evolution of smoking culture over the last five decades.
Throughout his career Martin Parr has captured daily life as it really is and as you sift through the archives it is rather difficult to not stumble upon a cigarette, cigar, pipe or – in recent years – a dreaded vape. So, with murmurs of the United Kingdom banning the purchase of tobacco by anyone born after 2009, no time seems more ideal to offer up a typically Parr commentary on society’s ever-changing relationship with smoking.
This survey of smoking culture is edited & designed by Sid Stephenson and published by The Rocket Press in a limited edition of 750 numbered copies, supported by DMB Represents.
