Visit ICP late night for a special screening in the ICP Library of Lee Shulman’s new documentary “I Am Martin Parr,” the definitive portrait of an extraordinary photographer who revolutionized contemporary photography by inventing a political, humanist and accessible photographic language. Director Lee Shulman will join ICP Director at Large, Francois Hebel for a Q&A after the screening. About the FilmSince the 1970s, English photographer Martin Parr has held up a sometimes tender, sometimes critical and always mischievous mirror to our times, forcing us to take a hard look at how consumer society has shaped our lives. Discover the maverick behind some of the most iconic images of the past century on an intimate and exclusive road trip across England with the uncompromising Parr, whose subjects, frames and colours have revolutionised contemporary photography.Tickets to attend the screening are $5 and include access to ICP’s galleries. Arrive early to see current exhibitions "Weegee: Society of the Spectacle", "To Conjure: New Archives in Recent Photography", and "American Job: 1940–2011", on view through May 5, 2025.About Lee ShulmanLee Shulman is the founder and creative director of The Anonymous Project.

Join us in the ICP shop for a book signing and celebration of photographer Cansu Korkmaz' s latest release, Quite a While.About the BookThe book Quite a While explores the idea of forming a new whole from the remnants of destruction by reinterpreting the emotional gesture of ripping a stack of photographs. Torn into a handful of piles by Korkmaz's partner after an exasperated exchange, the photographs are ripped from the center, allowing Korkmaz to repair the images by conjoining the halves together to create new images. The mending process speaks to the perseverance of relationships and an urge to re-contextualize frustrated memories, embracing the irreversible yet formative impacts of wounds. One of many such juxtapositions combines a plate of luscious peaches left in the couples' bedroom in Buenos Aires with a view of their kitchen in Uruguay; Korkmaz alternates the sizes according to the space occupied in her memory, allowing photographs that loomed more largely in her recollection to occupy more space speaks to the complexity of love and attachment and the mind's resilient capacity to reassemble, arrange, and mend.Cansu Korkmaz is a Turkish-born visual artist based in Brooklyn.
