Beautiful Losers

If you like art, specifically graffiti, I suggest you watch a documentary called "Beautiful Losers". It's about artists in the late 80's and throughout the 90's. Most of these artist are well known and all of them have a great insight to creativity and perhaps life in general. It tells their stories of how they got involved and what their lives were like during their artistic adventures. Steve Powers is one of the featured artists, and I have to say his pieces are very profound. Almost all contain phrases accompanied by pictures, but it is the meaning behind them that is so compelling. They're very straight forward pieces, yet still leave the mind to wonder. This is just some of his artwork.
 
If this type of art intrigues you, or if you are looking to be inspired you should definitely watch "Beautiful Losers".
