• The Martin Parr Foundation is hosting an exhibition featuring the photographer’s “The Last Resort,” published forty years ago.
• As part of “The Last Resort, 40 Years On by Martin Parr,” the foundation partnered with Lost and Grounded brewery for a limited edition series of six beer cans featuring Parr’s photography.

Acclaimed British photographer Martin Parr is best known for his sardonic take on middle-class Britons and their consumerism, and he was perhaps as polarizing as he was talented. In 2008, journalist Robert Sandall wrote in The Times of London in 2008 that Parr was either seen as “a pin-sharp satirical genius who tells uncomfortable truths with comedic flair,” or a “heartlessly cynical smartarse.”

Given that Parr’s focus was on middle-class consumerism, it almost seems fitting that the late photographer’s work would be featured on a can of beer.
