Real food

A fun collection of Martin Parrs food pictures, which documents the simple notion that we are what we eat. Real Food celebrates all things food through the eyes of the renowned British photographer Martin Parr – a kaleidoscope of foods the world over, from hot dogs to sticky buns and langoustine to lemon meringue pie. Featuring photographs taken throughout Martin Parrs prolific career to-date, Real Food will comprise the very best of Parrs iconic imagery – a collection of close-up food shots, in typical garish colour, taken by Parr throughout his travels across the world. Introduced with an essay by Fergus Henderson, British chef and founder of the restaurant St Johns in London, which considers Parrs photographs in the context of global cuisine, and Parrs fascination with the social aspect of food that is at the heart of these photographs.
