10 Years of Hamburger Eyes




2011 marks the tenth anniversary of one of the most vibrant and influential publications of the last decade, the monumental photo-journal Hamburger Eyes. The loosely-organized Hamburger Eyes collective has been a major force in our contempary culture, simultaneously documenting and influencing the fashion, journalism, art, and music of the first decade of the 21st Century.

The SF ZIne Fest is proud to present a free-wheeling, wide-ranging, and certainly non-exhaustive look at this Bay Area collective's impressive body of work. From early work from the archives to their new "Eyeland Editions," this exclusive, two-day showing is a must-visit for fans and a great way for new viewers to get to know Hamburger Eyes. And don't miss the Q + A with Ray Potes and other members of Hamburger Eyes on Saturday at 2:30pm!

Reading Room





For the second year, the SF Zine Fest will feature a dedicated Reading Room, with dozens of small-press titles from Zine Fest exhibitors and other creators. An on-site zine and comics library, the SFZF Reading Room provides attendees an opportunity to read and enjoy titles for free in a convivial and relaxing atmosphere, even including a friendly and knowledgeable zine librarian.
