Author: Brian Blomerth
Illustrator, musician and self-described “comic stripper” Brian Blomerth has spent years combining classic underground art styles with his irreverent visual wit in zines, comics, and album covers. Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day is the artists' most ambitious work to date: a historical account of the events of April 19, 1943, when Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann ingested an experimental dose of a new compound known as lysergic acid diethylamide and embarked on the world’s first acid trip. Featuring an introduction from renowned ethnopharmacologist, Dennis McKenna, Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day combines an extraordinary true story told in journalistic detail with the artist’s gritty, timelessly Technicolor comix style that is a testament to mind expansion, and a stunningly original visual history.
ISBN 9781944860240. Anthology Editions. pb. 188 pages. 130 ills. 15.2 x 22.9 cm.
