"Picture wall" - 2008
“A little bit of the picture wall at Cafe Van Kleef, in the mysterious East Bay city of Oakland.
The owner, Peter himself, was behind the bar this night, telling jokes, when he wasn't outside getting a massage from a customer, or running in the back to get the poem he had written a little earlier in the night.
This place is packed with weird and charming and just plain strange objects, and it's put together with a great deal of care, though to the casual eye it might look like the rummage sale of your dreams. The more you look, the more you're convinced there's a very interesting mind at work here.”
