Martin Parr steps out from behind the camera lens in informal autobiography

Martin Parr, the renowned British documentary photographer, has released an informal autobiography titled "Utterly Lazy and Inattentive: Martin Parr in Words and Pictures," written with author Wendy Jones. The book traces his career from early black-and-white work inspired by Garry Winogrand and Tony Ray-Jones to his signature vivid color series like "The Last Resort" (1983-85) and "Small World" (1987-94), which drew controversy for their satirical take on British leisure and global tourism. Parr, who was diagnosed with cancer in 2021, continues to be active, with his photographs of Bristol Pride currently on display at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery through March 2026.

From royal visitors to extortionate eBay sales: new book offers rare behind-the-scenes glimpse of Vermeer blockbuster

The Rijksmuseum's 2023 Vermeer exhibition, widely considered the most successful show of the century, drew 650,000 visitors and assembled 28 of the artist's 37 known paintings. A new book, *Closer to Vermeer: New Research on the Painter and his Art*, reveals behind-the-scenes details: the initial plan for a broader thematic show was abandoned in favor of a focused Vermeer-only presentation; nine paintings could not be borrowed, including *The Concert* (stolen in 1990) and *The Astronomer* (on loan to Louvre Abu Dhabi); the Herzog Anton Ulrich Museum refused to lend *Girl with a Wine Glass*, even rejecting an offer of buses for schoolchildren. The book also discloses that the Dutch king and queen visited multiple times during regular hours, that a quarter of visitors felt context was missing, and that over 3,500 complaints were filed about photography. The most expensive resold ticket on eBay reached $2,724.

Tate Britain is opening a major survey of American photographer Lee Miller (1907-77), running from 2 October 2025 to 15 February 2026. Curated by Hilary Floe, the exhibition aims to refocus attention on Miller’s artistic output rather than her storied personal life—her roles as a Surrealist, fashion photographer, war correspondent, and muse to figures like Man Ray, Pablo Picasso, and Jean Cocteau. The show presents the UK’s largest survey of her work, deliberately selecting images based on artistic merit rather than biographical illustration.
