Adrian Parra photographs the Salton Sea, a rift lake located directly on the San Andreas Fault in California’s Border Region.

Box Office: Director’s Cut

As of late, the Academy Awards have become just as much about the red carpet as they are about old Oscar.
With this in mind EveryGuyed decided to pay homage to 10 directors with a street installation; one where each piece showcases a director – from Hitchcock to Burton, Ritchie to Lee – known for personal and directorial styles ranging from the iconic to the idiosyncratic.
Over the years these artists have created many of the movies we love, and did so while looking great not just on awards night, but every time they stepped out from behind the camera.

Jesse Hazelip ‘Belle of the Brawl’
The work of San Fransisco based artist Jesse Hazelip can be seen all over the streets and walls of downtown Berkley, Oakland, and San Fransisco. Hazelip’s wheatpaste art is wry, and weird, and strikingly huge. His work features imposing images of mutant birds and beasts: half animal, half military machine. Pasted along walls and walkways, the presence of Hazelip’s monsters give the feeling of being in a wild urban tundra. Hazelip’s new solo show The Belle of the Brawl continues to develop the ideas explored in his previous work. A statement from the exhibition’s curator had this to say:
“In The Belle of the Brawl, the artist continues his ongoing examination of the sociopolitical patterns of repetitive historical mistakes. As the dust settles from the war in Iraq, the anxiety of crisis looms large over Afghanistan. The artist seeks to address the pending inevitability of violence and destruction through a visual examination which will include iconographic imagery from the artist’s earlier work: herons, buffalo and WWII weaponry, while introducing a new assembly of symbols and motifs.”
Hazelip created a special video preview to the exhibition. The Belle of the Brawl opens January 15th at San Fransisco’s 941 Geary and is free to the public.
The Xtreme Man Race by Nuno Alexandre

The Xtreme Man Race is a grueling 11 kilo marathon that Nuno Alexandre photographed in 2010. With no women allowed, and a painful course in Denmark, it’s a valuable opportunity for many men to prove their toughness, both physical, and mental. Do you think you could make it?
