His work reflects human behavior with emphasis on youth subcultures\, religious affectation\, and suburban conventions using a cinéma vérité approach embracing chance encounters. Templeton is a respected cult figure in the subculture of skateboarding\, a two-time world-champion\, and was inducted into the Skateboard Hall of Fame in 2016. He founded the legendary skate brand Toy Machine Bloodsucking Skateboard Company in 1993\, which he continues to manage and art direct. He has published over 30 books and zines\, including Teenage Smokers and Wires Crossed. He is known for his multimedia exhibitions featuring hundreds of works arranged in sprawling image clouds. He is represented by Roberts Projects in Los Angeles\, Tim Van Laere Gallery in Antwerp\, Belgium\, and Nils Staerk in Copenhagen\, Denmark.

His work is held in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York\, SMAK Museum\, Gent\, Belgium\, Orange County Museum of Art\, and The Bonnefanten Museum\, Maastricht\, Netherlands.\n\nModerator-\n\nA native of Southern California\, Jason Lee is a photographer\, actor\, and director. Having established a successful career as a professional skateboarder during skateboarding’s pivotal late 80s and early 90s period\, Lee transitioned into acting\, leading to work in film\, television\, and voiceover\, and collaborations with directors including Kevin Smith\, Lawrence Kasdan\, Cameron Crowe\, and Rebecca Miller. In 2001\, he developed a passion for photography and dedicated himself to pursuing the medium as a creative profession. Lee’s images have since been featured in multiple group and solo exhibitions\, magazines and books\, with A PLAIN VIEW (2018) marking his first official monograph. Prior to the release of A PLAIN VIEW\, in 2016\, Refueled magazine published a special limited-edition hardcover issue featuring a selection of Lee’s American instant-film photographs spanning 2006 to 2016\, constituting the first substantial volume devoted to his work. Lee’s debut museum exhibition\, OK: Jason Lee Photographs\, opened in June 2019. Commissioned by Tulsa’s Philbrook Museum of Art and on view through December 2019\, the exhibition featured an extensive selection of his Oklahoma photographs produced for the project\, occupying the Meinig and Burnstein Galleries in the museum’s former satellite location\, Philbrook Downtown (now Bob Dylan Center). A selection of Larry Clark’s original Tulsa prints were concurrently presented in the adjacent Smith Gallery. In December 2020\, UK publisher Stanley/Barker released IN THE GOLD DUST RUSH\, featuring a selection of Lee’s previously unpublished American black-and-white photographs spanning 2008 to 2020. After spending much of that year creating the book\, in November 2020\, at the request of Galveston Historical Foundation\, Lee traveled to Galveston\, Texas\, to make photographs on the island for a special book release to help commemorate the foundation’s 2021 sesquicentennial. The result is Galveston(2021)\, his first commissioned monograph\, featuring 98 color and black-and-white images accompanied by an essay on the island’s history by Will Gillham\, Head of Publications\, Amon Carter Museum of American Art. Lee has since published four additional books\, with new titles regularly emerging from his ongoing photographic practice. In 2026\, he teamed with photographer Raymond Molinar to launch the low fold\, an independent imprint dedicated to analog photography. That same year\, Lee joined the Board of Directors of Los Angeles Center of Photography (LACP).\n\n\n\n\n______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________\nCan’t be there with us in person?
