FRED AND LAURA RUTH BIDWELL PHOTOGRAPHY SERIES
“O wad some Power the giftie gie us, To see oursels as ithers see us!”* – sums up the power of provocative British photographer Martin Parr. Taking the common everyday of our modern lives, Parr’s innovative imagery uses a wry sense of humor to give it a twist. Parr will conduct workshops with photography classes prior to the evening lecture. *from: To a Louse, by Robert Burns
