SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Gallery 181 at 181 Fremont Residences has welcomed famed celebrity portrait photographer, Timothy White, for a presentation of his works from 1986 – 2023. The exhibition will feature images of some of the biggest names in pop culture history, including Audrey Hepburn, Robin Williams, Al Pacino, Harrison Ford, Whitney Houston, and countless others. A highlight of 181 Fremont’s art program located in a half-floor penthouse 700 feet high in San Francisco’s acclaimed first LEED Platinum-certified mixed-use building, Gallery 181 was created to host ongoing pop-up exhibitions and events celebrating art, the performing arts and more.
Timothy White is one of the world’s most sought-after celebrity photographers. For over thirty years he has captured the intimate and playful sides of legendary actors as well as the innocence of up and comers. Celebrated for his stunning, evocative images, his work demonstrates a mastery of his technique and an uncanny ability to incorporate an entire narrative into a single image. This undeniable talent, coupled with incredible access to such luminary subjects, has produced an extremely compelling body of work, both in terms of historical importance and as some of the best examples of the genre.
He has shot photography for some of the most recognizable movie posters of our time, the covers of countless high-profile publications, and imagery for an extraordinary and expansive roster of musicians. Named one of the most important people in photography by American Photo, Timothy has been the recipient of many photography and film awards, including the Lucie Award for International Photographer of the Year and his work is exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide.
"Art has always been central to the fabric of the Jay Paul Company so it was a natural extension to do something special in this building,” said Matt Lituchy, Chief Investment Officer, Jay Paul Company, developer of 181 Fremont.
181 Fremont’s art program is among the most innovative and comprehensive ever to exist in a private residential building. In addition to a permanent collection, there are over 200 paintings, sculptures and mixed material works displayed throughout. 181 Fremont also hosts world-class exhibitions within residences and at Gallery 181.
