Bixby Beach, 1992

Bixby Beach – no mat – $70
It took the ocean twelve years to take this wreck apart. Nothing gets here without a secret password – unless it falls down the cliff. Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac have stayed here and written about Bixby Canyon and Big Sur.

Earthquake, S.F. Marina, 1989
Earthquake – with mat – $100

Zappa – no mat – $70

Gulf War One, 1991
Gulf War – with mat – $100
Gulf War – no mat – $70
In protest of the media complicity in Gulf War One I collected discarded TV sets, Patrick Lofthouse painted them camouflage color, and we piled them up in front of TV network doors and took them to rallies in shopping carts. This photo was taken in a gallery in the Fillmore district.

Mendocino County Ridges, 2004
Mendocino – with mat – $100
Mendocino – no mat – $70
I was caretaker on a ranch on Fish Rock Road in Mendocino County for two summers. Under the surface of ridges, summer burnt grasses, fir, oak and Madrone forests, lies an ancient, forgotten volcanic zone. The glow in this photo is from the sunset over the Pacific ocean.
