Preview: Jonathan Leder Solo Exhibition ~ Superchief Gallery

Jonathan Leder Solo Exhibition
Superchief Gallery
August 8th - August 22nd, 2015
739 Kohler St, Los Angeles, CA 90021

We've been fans of Jonathan Leder since discovering his work on Paperwork NYC , who have showcased his zines at various book fairs the past couple of years. His latest solo show, and first in Los Angeles, comprises photos shot mostly on Polaroid between 2011 and 2015. The 92 photos grab you, discard you, and then make you pray to be let back in again for another glimpse of the retro fantasy world the artists creates with his models.

Some of the co-conspirators include Playmates Britany Nola and Kayslee Collins, and a then-unknown Emily Ratajkowski. Also prominently featured is Amy Hood, Leder’s lover, muse, and co-conspirator at Imperial Publishing, which has published a limited edition, 100-page exhibition catalog is available for sale at www.imperial-publishing.com.

The opening party is Saturday, August 8th, at Superchief Gallery in Downtown Los Angeles.
