Gallery 181, a dynamic highlight of 181 Fremont's art program located in a 700 foot high half-floor penthouse in the renowned San Francisco tower, is presenting an incredible new exhibition, Jardin de Nuit by KACE., Naeem Khan and Stanley Casselman's two-individual collective. The exhibition is open to the public through June 30, 2022.
Jardin de Nuit is a testament to Fashion and Pop Art showcasing Warholian flowers of various sizes comprised entirely of sequins in monochromatic colors meticulously hand sewn to a silkscreen backing.
KACE., a two-individual collective began by fashion designer Naeem Khan and artist Stanley Casselman, bridges the gap between art and fashion, and ultimately transcends that gap. KACE.'s work is a unique process in which extruded paint and hand sewn sequins create a centrifugal force that pulls viewers towards the center of each glistening dimensional flower. As one moves around the paintings, the figure/ground relationship continually shifts with the light and redefines itself, like flowers blooming in the dark of night.
"We are honored to bring KACE. and Jardin de Nuit to Gallery 181," says Matt Lituchy, Chief Investment Officer for the Jay Paul Company, developers of 181 Fremont. "This spectacular exhibition has created amazing excitement in San Francisco, and it underscores our commitment at 181 Fremont to contribute to the city's arts and cultural communities.
Led by art advisor Holly Baxter, 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 the building.
