Beautiful Losers

While surfing through the interwebs I came across an awesome typography-rich poster.  After further examination I realized it is for a new film called Beautiful Losers.

The Film:

BEAUTIFUL LOSERS celebrates the spirit behind  one of the most influential cultural moments of a generation        

In the early 1990's a loose-knit group of likeminded 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.

Starring a selection of artists who are considered leaders within this culture, Beautiful Losers focuses on the telling of personal stories. It speaks to themes of what happens when the outside becomes "in" as it explores the creative ethos connecting these artists and today's youth.

You can check out the trailer here, the screening information here and find out about the artists here.
