Atlanta School Presents: Studio Tours & Talks W/ Jon Sadler

FREE (Registration Required)
Joining us live from the newly built, state-of-the-art photography studio at Boise State University, surrounded by cameras, dark rooms, and more, Jon Sadler shares his photography practice, his inspiration, and musings on music, art, cabin living, and more.
Jon joins The Atlanta School July 12-16, 2021, as the instructor of Places and Faces: B&W Photography, where he will instruct students to create large-format paper negatives that capture Atlanta’s architecture, landscape, and people. Learn more here.
Jonathan Sadler moved to Boise in 2007 from Chicago, Illinois, where he still maintains a studio with his collaborative partner, Luke Batten. Jonathan’s collaboration goes by the name New Catalogue. Using a methodology that both parallels and gently ridicules the concept of stock photo agencies, New Catalogue creates photographs that tap into the popular culture while expanding on traditional photographic genres. Jonathan is currently working on an expansive photography project of cabins on National Forest Service land. Jonathan spends part of every summer in a rustic cabin that his family owns on land that the government owns. He is documenting these unique structures while the cabins exist in some semblance of their original rustic form.
Jonathan has shown nationally and internationally at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, The Indianapolis Museum of Art, and the National Gallery in Prague, Czech Republic, among others. His work is included in the permanent collections of many major museums. Jonathan teaches all levels of Photography at Boise State University.
