MARCH - APRIL 2015
George Katzenberger
Photographer, Artist and Instructor
JURIED SHOW RECEPTION
Date: Tuesday, March 10, 2015
Time: 6:30 PM - 9:00 PM
Location: Norman P. Murray Center,
Jacaranda Room,
24932 Veterans Way, Mission Viejo, CA 92692
ABOUT THE ARTIST: George is an advertising
photographer specialized in product and advertising
photography and has owned the Katzenberger
Photography studio in Santa Ana since 1986. He
teaches photography workshops and classes for the
City of Mission Viejo, Irvine Fine Arts Center, and has
guest lectured at Saddleback College and USC.
Although shooting
digital for all other
commercial work,
George also shoots
black and white film
in a 4x5 view
camera
documenting
buildings, dams,
bridges, etc., for the
Historical American Building Survey (HABS) and the
Historical American Engineering Record (HAER)
sections of the Library of Congress.
Born in Seattle and raised in Garden Grove, CA,
George's interest in photography began in 1974 when
he found an SLR camera and took a beginner’s class.
George went on to earn a photography degree at
Orange Coast College, CA.
In 1976, George got a job as the photographer at a
novel new technology store called “The Candid
Computer” shooting portraits of the public in a mall.
The system used a TV camera connected to a
“digitizer," a 16 bit computer and a 7 pin dot matrix
printer.
As a result, George is perhaps Orange
County's first (non-scientist) digital photographer.
George’s true love, however, is shooting documentary
photography.
Current projects include the “Impostor Project” in which
full size artificial “trees” found in suburban environments
are revealed by using infrared photography.
The
critically acclaimed “Impostors” work has been growing
since 2006.

The show is open to all artists 18 years of age and older who are exhibiting or non-‐members. Artists may submit up to three (3) entries. Artwork must be of such nature as not to offend the sensibilities of the public. For a cash prize to be awarded there must be at least 20 entries in a category. Ribbons will be awarded in categories that have fewer than 20 entrants. At the discretion of SAL, categories may be combined to meet minimum entry requirement. The “Masters” Class is for any artist who has won an award in any SAL show in the last five years (2010-‐
2014) or those who could be considered professional artists. No entries accepted that have won an award in any juried competition. Entries must be the artist's own concept, using artists own reference material, unassisted, original, and finished within the last two years. No reproductions. All entries should be labeled on back with artist name, phone number, media, title and price. For safety reasons fragile entries or entries exceeding 35 pounds must be handled by the artist and are accepted at the discretion of SAL. Paintings and drawings, including frame, may not exceed 44" diagonally. Work must be properly framed (paper media should be matted and framed with plexi-‐glass), be completely dry (not tacky to the touch), and wired taut for hanging -‐ (no saw-‐ tooth hangers or stand-‐up frames). Framing, plexi-‐glass and mats must be clean and in good condition, or will not be judged. This is a blind judging. Signatures must not be visible to the juror. You may do this yourself or your permission is implied for SAL to obscure the signature with tape. All reasonable care will be taken in handling entries. Saddleback Art League, the Mission Viejo Library, and/or the City of Mission Viejo assume NO LIABILITY for damage or loss. Each artist must sign a "Hold Harmless Agreement." Insurance is the responsibility of the artist. By submitting a registration form, artists agree to permit the Saddleback Art League to photograph any entry for publicity purposes, and award-‐winning entrants grant Saddleback Art League license to use their artwork in publicity and posters for future shows. 10% commission is payable to Saddleback Art League for any art sold as a result of show. Entries juried into the show may not be removed from the show prior to its termination on 5/22/15. Work will not be accepted if show rules are not followed.
