Photographer Jack Mitchell would have turned 100 years old in 2025. In recognition of the centennial of this creative and historically significant artist, GME now offers a series of readymade exhibitions that showcase Mitchell’s extensive photographic oeuvre.

Over the course of his half-century professional career, Mitchell documented a vast array of artists in the fields of music, dance, theatre, literature, and the fine arts. No exhibition encapsulates this history better than Jack Mitchell: Artists, which features over 50 silver gelatin and color photographs of noteworthy American visual, musical, and literary talents. This show first opened on May 16, 2021, at the Adtran, Jurenko & Thurber Galleries at the Huntsville Museum of Art, and is currently available to galleries, museums, and other cultural institutions both in the U.S. and abroad.

Many of the images featured in this expansive exhibition graced the covers of such publications as TIME, LIFENewsweekRolling Stone, Vogue, and Vanity Fair, and became the signature photos of the subjects captured. Highlights include portraits of such notable artists as Grammy- and Oscar-winning singer-songwriter Carly Simon, Pop art icon Andy Warhol, abstract expressionist painter Helen Frankenthaler, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tennessee Williams, 20th-century Surrealist pioneer Salvador Dalí, and arguably the most famous couple in popular music history, John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

GME aims to further elevate the significance of Mitchell’s career within the larger artistic, cultural, and public spheres. Exhibitions such as Jack Mitchell: Artists convey the breadth and historical significance of Mitchell’s portfolio and affirm his stature as one of the most prolific and perceptive photographic chroniclers of 20th-century artists and cultural figures.
