Jörg Colberg interviews Martin Parr
Apart from being an accomplished photographer, Martin Parr has been active as a book editor (for example, Boring Postcards or The Photobook: A History) and curator. This Summer, "Colour before colour – 1970’s European Color Photography" will be on view at Hasted Hunt gallery, curated by Martin and showcasing six not very widely known early European colour pioneers. I talked to him about the show.
Jörg Colberg: Why did it take so long for colour photography to be accepted as an art form?
Martin Parr: I guess because the museum/art world was rather dismissive of it. Although, as soon as colour was invented it was used used for commercial purposes, and there were indeed some photographers who did their own work in it. It wasn’t ever taken seriously…

Interview with Ted Orland!
Paul Butzi writes at The Online Photographer:
I’m a big fan of Ted Orland‘s books (especially Art and Fear [with David Bayles] and The View from the Studio Door), so I’m delighted to be able to point readers to an in-process online interview of Orland.
The interview started this past Sunday, it’s still going on, and it looks like it’s going to be well worth following.
What he said! I recommend the hell out of both books to anyone who makes art of any kind: photographers, writers, painters, dancers, musicians, sculptors… you, me, them… everybody, everybody! If I grabbed you by the throat, threw you up against a wall, and pushed the books in your face while screaming, "YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST! FUCKING! READ THIS!!!", with the force of a thousand suns, it would still fall short of conveying how strongly I feel about them.
In addition to being a great author, Orland is an accomplished photographer who now mainly shoots with a Holga.
