Exhibition : Martin Parr - Global Warming at the Jeu de Paume - From January 30 to May 24, 2026
Categories : Exhibitions, published on : 3/10/26
‘l’m creating entertainment, which has a serious message if you want to read into it, but I don’t expect to change anyone’s minci – l’m just showing them what they think they may know already.’
Martin Parr, 2021.
The Jeu de Paume, located in the Tuileries Garden, a stone's throw from the Louvre Museum, revisits the work of the late British photographer Martin Parr, bringing together a selection of series produced since the 1970s that find new resonance in light of the growing disarray of the contemporary world.
For over fifty years, Parr travelled the globe not as an activist but as a relentless and amused observer, offering a lucid and unsparing portrait of global imbalances and the excesses of contemporary life: the grotesque face and damaging effects of mass tourism, the rise of car culture, our dependence on technology, unbridled consumerism, and our ambivalent relationship with other living beings.
Martin Parr sadly passed away on December 6, 2025, but actively participated in the organization of this exhibition.
