This week we have interviewed Magnum photographer, Martin Parr, who will be attending Port Eliot in the basement of the main House with his rolling exhibition this year. When Parr’s not in the event line-up himself, or simply at the festival for his own pleasure, he is the author of almost 50 books and has been featured in more than 80 exhibitions worldwide. Over the four days of the festival, Parr will be capturing the on-goings of Port Eliot with his magnificent photography, which will be showcased in ‘The Pleasures of the Immediate’ exhibition consisting of around fifty constantly updating and evolving photographs. This is a unique experience for Port Eliot, and also for you to feature in one of his photographs, which you will then be able to take home at the end of the day. Read his interview here for more information on this extraordinary event.
