Beautiful Losers Tonight!


Beautiful Losers at the
ICA

In the early 90s a loose-knit group of outsiders, including Harmony Korine and Shepherd Fairey, met up around a little NYC gallery. Rooted in skateboarding, surf, punk, hip hop and graffiti, they made art that reflected their lives and, with almost no influence from the 'establishment' art world, they transformed pop culture. This documentary celebrates the spirit behind these artists.

On 6 August we have a Slam City Skates launch for the film at 8.30pm, with a Q&A and party.
