Introducing photographer Jim Stewart . . .

Men South of Market

Jim Stewart of Keyhole Studio in San Francisco has recently hung One-
Man Shows at the Ambush bar, and currently is hanging on the walls of
the Catacombs. His photographs of Christo’s “Running Fence” will open
in the fall at the Galeria Vandres in Madrid.
His work will be on public display at his studio at 768-A Clementina
as part of the South of Market Open Studio.
Jim lives in the South of Market area and does much of his photogra-
phy in that neighborhood, and at various locations ranging from Mount
Tam to the Slot Hotel. On one side of our new centerfold are a few shots
from his show “Men South of Market.” Jim promises heavier examples for
future spreads to follow this jock issue.
When not behind his Nikon, Jim does construction and carpentry
work around San Francisco. His Keyhole Studios also makes prints of his
exciting work available by mail.
