Pioneering Coventry:Photography of Richard Sadler

As part of the City of Culture programme, Photo Miners are excited to present Richard Sadler's photography of the immediate years after the Second World War in Coventry. Coventry became a city of the future, a welcome home to displaced and migrant people and one that pioneered new ways of living through its architecture and planning and innovative industry. Richard lived through this period and, in a time of scarce photographic resources, committed to documenting Coventry's story. Thanks to his work, we have high-quality visual evidence of 1950s Coventry. I was brought into this project to provide some branding and design work for the exhibitions. This included three separate posters and graphics for each exhibition and a catalogue showcasing the images in the show.
