DIED YOUNG STAYED PRETTY
A FILM ABOUT POSTER ART
by Eileen Yaghoobian
Died Young, Stayed Pretty is a candid look at the underground poster culture in North America. This unique documentary examines the creative spirit that drives these indie graphic artists. They pick through the dregs of America’s schizophrenic culture and piece them back together. What you end up with is a caricature of the black and bloated heart that pulses greed through the US economy. The artists push further into the pulp to grab the attention of passersby, plastering art that’s both vulgar and intensely visceral onto the gnarled surfaces of the urban landscape. Features many artist including Uncle Charlie

HOUSTON PRESS COVER
What's sll the fuss about?
July 16th issue of the weekly Houston Press featured a cover done by Uncle Charlie. The story on how national indie bands choosing to skip Houston all together. The cover, above, stirred up the conservative bees in the Houston area. Seems some folks took offense to the cartoon kid flipping the "bird". The paper recieved dozens of phone calls and complaints, some threatening arrest if the paper was ever delivered again.
