Open for Buisness

Open for Business is the story of contemporary British manufacturing and industry told through the lens of nine Magnum photographers, including Martin Parr and Chris Steele-Perkins. Their photographs offer subjects that range from traditional handmade crafts to modern intelligent automation from foundries and assembly lines to research laboratories and high tech cleanrooms, showing an economic sector of extraordinary resilience and diversity. Visiting over 100 workplaces across the UK, photographs were contributed by Jonas Bendiksen, Stuart Franklin, Bruce Gilden, David Hurn, Peter Marlow, Martin Parr, Mark Power, Chris Steele-Perkins and Alessandra Sanguinetti.
