Tim Gaudreau is a New Hampshire artist who documented his trash for an entire year. He turned those 5,000 pictures into collages that will be on display at the CIIS Minna Street Center starting November 9th.
Tucker Shaw used this same concept to make his book, “Everything I Ate: A Year in the Life of My Mouth,” which I highly recommend for its beautiful (and sometimes disgusting) photographs.

This Friday, Needles & Pens (3253 - 16th Street, San Francisco) hosts a release for Silent Pictures (Akashic Books), a book of photography from Pat Graham, who shot tons of live, independent rock shows in the ’90s and early ’00s, including Modest Mouse, Ted Leo, Bikini Kill, Nation of Ulysses, The Shins and Fugazi. In addition to the live shots, Graham took many photos backstage, in vans and in hotel rooms, giving a unique outsider’s perspective on the life of these bands on tour.
