Martin Parr: Luxury (DELUXE EDITION WITH PRINT)

Deluxe edition with signed print, edition 21/100 in slipcase. 

In his epitaph to the age of conspicuous consumption and wealth, Luxury features Martin Parrs photographs from five years of watching the rich and fabulous at international champagne-fuelled gatherings. In a series that manages to be both satirical and warmly affectionate towards air-kissing luxury-victims, Parrs subjects include parties, horse races and notable luxury events including the Millionaires Fair, Moscow, the Dubai Art Fair and the Art Basel Miami. Designed with an appropriately luxurious silver-foiled padded leatherette cover and introduced with an argument for a new morality by leading British fashion designer Sir Paul Smith, Luxury is the powerful statement about the era before the bubble burst.
