Martin Parr ‘Black Country Stories’

Martin Parr ‘Black Country Stories’ was a four-year photography project by Martin Parr, the definitive chronicler of modern age ‘Britishness’.

Martin’s photographs offer us the possibility to see the World from his idiosyncratic outlook and perspective documenting everyday life in Dudley and the Black Country.

Commissioned and presented by leading community arts organisation Multistory, the project included visual stories from across Dudley, the Black Country and Sandwell.

The project took Martin across the local district documenting markets, places of work, temples, social clubs, summer fetes and tea dances amongst other places.
