This exclusive book was first published on the occasion of the exhibition ‘Photobooks: Martin Parr’s Best Books of the Decade’, curated by Martin Parr at the National Photographic Archive, Dublin, Ireland – in the framework of PhotoIreland Festival 2011. The publication includes Martin Parr’s comments on each book, together with illustrations and ‘Author’s notes’. These are mostly unpublished texts by the photographers, publishers and curators of the works – personal statements on the process and raison d’être of each book. This book was on show at the PARRBOOKS exhibition during the Fotobook Kassel 2015.
