Martin Parr – the Albert Street Years
In partnership with Calderdale MBC Museums and
Galleries
Born in Surrey in 1952, internationally renowned
photographer Martin Parr moved to Hebden Bridge
in 1974, and, with ceramicist Jenny Beavan and
painter Ray Elliot, founded the Albert Street
Workshop. It was from 8 Albert Street, now Ribbon
Circus, that Parr began his work capturing life in a
northern town, recording the everyday moments of
Hebden Bridge residents, particularly the
congregation of Crimsworth Dean Methodist Chapel.
This exhibition offers a not to be missed opportunity
to remember how we used to live.
Curated by Christine Bradley, the exhibition
comprises photographs loaned from the Martin Parr
collection held by Calderdale Museums and Galleries
Service. We would like to thank Richard McFarlane
and his colleagues for their support.
