Harry Gruyaert

Since the 1970s‚ Martin Parr has fearlessly held out his unique photographic mirror and given us some of the most extraordinary and unique visual clichés of modern times. Sometimes serious‚ often absurd but always playful‚ his insightful and often acrid commentary on consumer society has always been a subject of controversy and discussion.

This is the story of 75-year-old Magnum member Harry Gruyaert. Coming from a repressed and grey background he discovers the lights and colour of Europe. Driven by the irresistible desire to be a photographer, he becomes a pioneer in European colour photography. It is the story of a restless vagabond, a questing soul who never stops hunting for images.
