Craig R. Stecyk III is arguably the most important artist in the original Beautiful Losers exhibition. His installation in the show was a showstopper ... and hands down we received more positive feedback on that piece than any of the others. Scroll to the third image to see his Losers installation. The second image is the backside of the print, and images 4-6 are from his Beyond The Streets installation. Stecyk's body of work is massive - he has extensively photographed California culture for decades: custom car culture, surfing, skateboarding. In addition to his photography practice, Stecyk draws on various California subcultures to produce bright, vibrant works on paper. These works often have a hand airbrushed background with a silkscreen image on top. He made these works for many years in collaboration with the iconic and famed Colby Poster Printing Company in Los Angeles. The Losers print here is representative of this work and was in collaboration with Colby.
As an original member of the Dogtown skateboard gang, Stecyk changed the look and attitude of skateboarding forever. His documentation of the 70s Dogtown scene altered the lives of a generation, catalyzing the rebel spirit of skateboarding we know today. The modern skateboarder archetype owes a great deal to Stecyk.
