Beautiful Losers: Update

In the early ’90s, the most we knew of an artistic movement was the one that was happening on our World Politics textbook (and we seriously hope the statute of limitations is up on prosecuting for vandalism). However, guys (and gals) like Shepard Fairey, Margaret Kilgallen, Mike Mills, Harmony Korine, Thomas Campbell and Ed Templeton were just getting their art collective groove on. About a year ago we posted on the origins of Aaron Rose’s doc project Beautiful Losers. which captured an epoch of hip-hip, skate, punk, and graffiti cultures coming together. This summer Sidetrack Films will release the flick to the masses. We’re so excited, we’re going to start camping out at the theater, Star Wars style.
