Just down the street from THIS hides one of our favorite labels… Stones Throw Records. They’ve been growing their empire in Highland Park for the past 5 years right under everyone’s nose. Met with Mr. Strong to catch up on their new shit and talk shop about some future plans. Lots of big things brewing on the eastside. Here are a few shots from around the office.

Leo Fitzpatrick has created a series of 8 collages that are the most minimal of the show.  He’s used old images and text from romance novels and other old paperbacks to juxtapose phrases and images to create each single piece.

THIS buddy Mark The Cobrasnake unveiled his new RVCA capsule line at a yard sale on Fairfax & Rosewood Saturday. Along with his pieces, he had his regular mix from the Cobra Shop strewn all over the street. Lot’s of fools came through.. plenty of Honest Tea and Coors on ice.. fun for everyone~ Click here to read more »

Tonight our neighborhood pal, Andy Mueller, is showing some of his luscious photos from his travels here and there and down the street at Fred Segal in Santa Monica… yes, Fred Segal. Andy is dope. He does everything and he does it well. From skateboard graphics, photoshoots and his own label, The Quiet Life. He also has a great piece in our these friends show right now. Come out to SAMO tonight and say hi.

Andres Guerrero has put the finishing touches on his new gallery tucked in the Mission up in SF. Andres cut his teeth in the gallery world over in the Tenderloin with White Walls Gallery and Justin Girala. Now moving on, Guerrero Gallery is amazing. It’s a 3,000 square foot venue with high vaulted ceilings and skylights and 12 foot walls throughout. This seems like the perfect space where Andres can focus on the development and careers of some of the artists he has struck a bond with over the years. Andres is an incredibly easy going and like-able guy from the very first time you meet him. So its easy to see how he has assembled such a strong ensemble for this first show. The line-up includes Brian Willmont, Christopher Russell, Richard Colman, Aaron Noble, Ryan Scott Shaffer, Tim Diet, Ryan Wallace, Rogelio Martinez, Adam 5100, Hilary Pecis, Mark Mulroney, Ala Ebtekar, Eric Yahnker, AJ Fosik, Mike Lesage, Allister Lee, Cleon Peterson, Ryan Travis Christian, Marissa Textor, Shepard Fairey and Bill McRight. The first opening is slated for this Saturday, March 6th, 7-11pm. 2700 19th Street San Francisco, CA 94110 415.724.0771
