ASSORTED COCKTAIL presents 156 works by Parr, selected from several of his thematic series. Parr’s ability to see and pick a detail or a colour combination is exceptional. It’s an everyday life but everyday life that goes unnoticed by most of us.
Thomas Weski said of Parr’s photographs that they 'are original and entertaining, accessible and understandable. But at the same time they show us in a penetrating way how we live, how we present ourselves to others, and what we value.'
