Beautiful Losers, the book on DIY punk, surf and art is now a documentary film, and on Friday it's screening at the Walker Art Center here in Minneapolis. It features interviews with Ed Templeton, Barry McGee, Mike Mills, Jo Jackson, Chris Johanson, Stephen Powers and Harmony Korine, plus as Walker designer Vance says, an amazing amount of footage from the late Margaret Kilgallen.
Also: In conjunction with the film, check out a free art talk by Chris Johanson and Jo Jackson at the Walker this Thursday, May 1, and an installation by the husband-and-wife art duo at Art of This gallery, which opens Saturday.
