These images have been taken on a bus trip crossing the Golden Gate bridge, heading for Rodeo beach at the Marin Headlands just outside of San Francisco on a high surf day, focusing on scratched bus window tags. A photo project by Silvia Nonnenmacher.
This video fragment is from a golden gate bridge ride on the 76 bus. The only MUNI bus leaving San Francisco and crossing the bridge to Marin headlands (on sundays and holidays). The bus riders are a unique crowd of 90 % regulars, mostly single, retired males, having their chats about whatever. In summertime some stranded tourists are joining in to drive up to the vermillion gg bridge.
This piece is a walking scene at the Marin Headlands (San Francisco/ Sausolito) thinking of Giacometti's thin walking figure- sculptures. He was besides Beckett one of the greatest existencialist artists and to me the greatest 20 century sculptor.
