Through art and images, Pop Psychedelic examines the current synthesis of 1960s and 1970s psychedelia and pop art of the 1980s. The lasting influence of these two art forms continues in fashion, music, spirituality, the art world at large and even revolutionary movements. Pop Psychedelic considers the history of these two movements and their unique contributions, ideologically, aesthetically and culturally. Looking at the evolution of these ideas over time, it relates them to the psychedelic pop phenomenon in illustration and graphic arts.
