Cakes & Balls

Más información sobre el libro

A book of Martin Parr's Vienna work released to coincide with his 2016 exhibition at the Anzenberger Gallery. A simultaneous exhibition of Parr's older black and white work will be up at the Kunst Haus Wien. The book explores the know cliches of Vienna - the balls, the patisseries and the tourists. Martin photographed 5 of the 36 balls that make up the "ball season" in Vienna - the highest concentration of balls anywhere in the world. And also visited the most famous cafes, such as Cafe Central and Aida, with their glittering array of cakes as well as documenting the tourists relaxing on the Danube.
