Only in England: Photographs By Tony Ray-Jones and Martin Parr
This special exhibition examines the close relationship between the work of these two important photographers and their fascination with the English.
Intrigued by the eccentricities of English social customs, Tony Ray-Jones spent the latter half of the 1960s travelling across England, photographing what he saw as a disappearing way of life. Humorous yet melancholy, these images had a profound influence on photographer Martin Parr, who has made a selection from the Tony Ray-Jones archive for this exhibition.
Parr's selection will be shown alongside his rarely seen work, The Non-Conformists, which documents a declining traditional way of life in 1970s Hebden Bridge.
