Ray Potes guest blogs up the first evening of this great new Mission photo lab with a Valentine's Day photo show.
The guys at Hamburger Eyes unveiled the newest edition to their empire last Wednesday. The HAMBURGER EYES PHOTO EPICENTER is a fully-functional photo lab offering a range of services as well as darkroom and studio rentals. The place is really impressive and the equipment is in fantastic shape (I printed photos for the show there and they turned out great!). For the opening on Wednesday, they hung a group show and invited everyone out to celebrate the achievment. I however, ocasionally (i.e. when I'm sober) suffer from severe social anxiety so I didn't shoot any photos. Luckily Ray was snapping shots all night and he took care of it for me.. -Jesse
So I got a digital camera to document the rise and fall of our newest adventure, the HAMBURGER EYES PHOTO EPICENTER. Due to our new website not being ready yet, I thought I'd let Jesse off the hook for not getting his own photos of our grand opening by letting him use my photos for Fecal Face. However, being new to the digi game, I fucked up and deleted more than half of the 500 photos I shot, (I deleted an un-named folder on my desktop - Nice one.) which in retrospect is no big deal because most of it was me just trying to figure out the settings, autofocus, and weird delay times. You'll see. They suck.
All of the set up photos got deleted, but here's one of Stefan who edited and hung the show with the help of Jason while I fucked around with my new camera. He did a good job.
Teresa and Jane only drink champange now. Everyday is new years eve. Champagne-o's?
Bobby, Eckoff, and Monkey. Monkey was supposed to watch the door and make sure crackheads dont come in. guess who came in around 9pm? Crackheads. Luckily they only wanted empty cans and bottles.

Mike and his new van. See that carpet in the back, he hides his golf clubs under there. When we go golfing I like to think we're hauling off a dead body. When we're hauling a dead body, I pretend it's golf clubs.
Straight to Pop's. Monkey and Puppybreath. Happy Valentines Day.
Where im from this is the hand sign for " 2 in the pink, 1 in the stink " but i think she just got crossed up and caught in the middle of a "peace" and a "horns". Isnt that cute?
It’s strange that it took years for the visual art world to establish its online voice. Despite a plethora of image-sharing services such as Flickr, Tumblr, and ffffound, sites that meaningfully document the art scene have been few and far between. Over the past decade, San Francisco’s Fecal Face has risen to the top of the heap, providing the art community with its very own Pitchfork or Gawker Media through consistently strong news coverage, a dependable calendar, and tart criticism. -read on

The meteoric rise and fall of Jean-Michel Basquiat, born 1960. In the crime-ridden NYC of the 1970s, he covers the city with the graffiti tag SAMO. In 1981 he puts paint on canvas for the first time, and by 1983 he is an artist with “rock star status.” In 1985 he and Andy Warhol become close friends and painting collaborators, but they part ways and Warhol dies suddenly in 1987. Basquiat’s heroin addiction worsens, and he dies of an overdose in 1988. The artist was 25 years old at the height of his career, and today his canvases sell for more than a million dollars. With compassion and insight, Tamra Davis details the mysteries that surround this charismatic young man, an artist of enormous talent whose fortunes mirrored the rollercoaster quality of the downtown scene he seemed to embody.
Wanna thank NYC based painter David Lyle for sending us this fantastic print. David's paintings are inspired from found photographs. He "feels that to find a lost photo and paint it, allows the photo and the memory to have a second life." We've been fans of his work for some time now. ~check some
Wanna thank marijuana dispensary The Vapor Room for being a sponsor of our 10 year anniversary show opening up on Sept 10th here in San Francisco. Funny because we don't even smoke pot here at Fecal Face, but if we did, The Vapor Room would be our jam.
