Bruce’s Beauties
Timed to the advent of the 50th anniversary of the most popular surf movie ever made, a hidden archive of production stills and photos taken by the director has percolated up through the topsoil. Many have found their way onto Bruce Brown Films’ social feeds. Others have been high-graded into the recent nonesuch boxed-edition art volume, The Endless Summer. Page through and see if these don’t have you wanting to prick up your ear, listening for Wally Georis’ haunting melodica work with The Sandals as Mike and Robert cross datelines.

Wish Fullfilment
The linocuts of Australian artist Stan Squire are inextricably rooted to his native New South Wales—both in content and production. When the fickle surf in his zone goes flat, he retreats to his studio and hunkers down to work, creating Arcadias of perfect surf that are half fantasy and half memory. And when the conditions shift, he heads back out to restock the mental banks. “It’s inconsistent down here,” he says, “so you’re constantly dreaming about perfect setups. Whereas if you grew up in Bali, there’d be no need.”
