In this Sofa Session Martin Parr is in conversation with fellow Magnum photographer Mark Power
They discuss how finding his father's enlarger in the loft first opened up a world of photography, how a fortuitous trip led to Mark being at the cutting edge of history as the Berlin wall came down and how his photographs of construction projects started with a commission to record the Millennium Dome
They discuss 'The Shipping Forecast' project in detail, touching on the romanticism of the sea, working in a square format and how Mark visited all the shipping areas. Signed copies of the book are available from the MPF bookshop: www.martinparrfoundation.org/...
Produced by the Martin Parr Foundation.

One of the best interviewers around, Mr. Parr lets his subjects talk.

I'm a graduate of MA Photography programme at Uni. of Brighton and at the time (2010-11), Mark Power was one of our professors. After a feedback session, he gave me the exact advice McCullin had given him years before: Work in your own country.

Never heard of Mark before! What a great interview.

@charlie4966

My Gran had a photo of buddhist monks in Tibet on her wall in a traditional English house that Mark had given to her. That made quite an impact with me.

Another awesome interview, thanks so much. I recently took a trip to Europe and although not the reason for visiting UK, going to the foundation was high on my list. I had the privilege of meeting Martin and the team in Bristol, who could not have been nicer to me and my friends. I was able to to tell Martin exactly as @pitmanra said below, how good Martin is at interviewing allowing his subjects to speak. To be honest I feel privileged to meet a true inspiration. Thank you so much to the whole team for the brilliant work. Keith (HK)
