Beautiful Losers - Ep 1
An introduction to the artists, including a memorable decapitation anecdote from filmmaker Harmony Korine. BEAUTIFUL LOSERS celebrates the spirit behind one of the most influential cultural moments of a generation. In the early 1990s a loose-knit group of like-minded outsiders found common ground at a little NYC storefront gallery. Rooted in the DIY (do-it-yourself) subcultures of skateboarding, surf, punk, hip hop & graffiti, they made art that reflected the lifestyles they led. Developing their craft with almost no influence from the ""establishment"" art world, this group and the subcultures they sprang from have now become a movement that has been transforming pop culture.
