Tim Street-Porter's photographs documenting architecture and landscapes in LA will be his first solo show with the Earl McGrath Gallery Los Angeles. Street-Porter's show will also accompany his new book LOS ANGELES, published by Rizzoli as a limited edition with introduction by Diane Keaton. British born Tim Street-Porter is an internationally recognized photographer who lives and works in Los Angeles, with a second home in Connecticut. Street-Porter studied architecture in London and then began his career in photography. In 1967, he went to Paris to photograph some interiors and inflatable furniture and sold his work to Queen Magazine which gave him a five page spread. Street-Porter spent ten years working in London before visiting Los Angeles in the early 70's. At that time Street-Porter then fell in love with LA and decided to make it his home in 1977. Tim Street-Porter is unique among photographers in that he not only applauded for his architect's eye but also for his interest in writing about design. Street-Porter has worked for a variety magazines including: Architectural Digest, World of Interiors, House Beautiful, Elle, Decor, The New York Times, Town & Country and Conde Nast Traveller. In addition, Street-Porter has also written and produced four books on architecture. Freestyle, the New Architecture & Design of Los Angeles, and Casa Mexicana: the Architecture and Design of Mexico were published by Stewart, Tabori and Chang. The Los Angeles House and Tropical Houses were published by Clarkson Potter. In 1997, the Los Angeles Times best described Tim Street Porter when referring to his twice crowned position as "one of LA's coolest people," according to Buzz Magazine: "After L.A. slips into the ocean and disappears forever, people will remember it primarily through the images of Street-Porter."
