Martin Parr in NYT Magazine

from “Sugar Shock” (for New York Times Magazine)

In the spirit of recent “art photographers” making their mark on the “fashion world” (see my last post on Alec Soth in W Magazine), I thought I’d point everyone to today’s New York Times Magazine featuring a spread by the one and only Martin Parr. In Sugar Shock, Parr turns fashion accessories and jewelry into delightfully colorful, and nearly edible, objects.
As a side note, Mr. Parr has apparently been doing other editorial work for New York Times, as he has a few images accompanying this article.
Look at Sugar Shock first, though.

Marie Antoinette by Sofia Coppola. I think of “let them eat cake” when I look at Martin Parr’s fashion photographs. The vibrant, rich, and saturated colors seem like rock-star-candy as some people have described Sofia Coppola’s, Marie Antionette.

Martin Parr vs Addison Boone (again)
I found it kinda obnoxious.
