A Mac(k) Curatorial - The Lower Haight

Me and Bobby Mack teamed up for a little Lower Haight Art Appreciation Walk. Bobby's been stationed in the neighborhood for over a decade and I've been coming and going from the place for about seven years. A lot of the art in this neighborhood comes and goes too. Below is a taste of of some of the aesthetic pleasures we enjoyed on our walk.

Haight & Fillmore

I arrived to the corner of Haight & Fillmore and found this guy. His beats filled the air and blended beautifully with the urban intersection. As fortune would have it he was not just serving up a DJ set, he was also offering a zine packed with art, interviews, music picks, and some short fiction. ALFQ (Allied Forces Quarterly) is a much appreciated art find, it's both good looking and ambitious.

Mmmm..... graphic ART from the street and cool, clean layouts in the mag.
