Martin Parr's 'Small World' Series at Foam Amsterdam

Foam Amsterdam presents a retrospective of British photographer Martin Parr, focusing on his series 'Small World' (1987–94), a long-term anthropological study of mass tourism. Parr's sharp wit captures the absurdities of modern leisure culture, from tourists marching in duck-like formations up the Eiffel Tower or Switzerland's Kleine Scheidegg pass, only to find their view blocked by other visitors. The exhibition positions Parr as a precise observer of human quirks and the homogenization of travel experiences.
