The Art Collection With A Psychedelic Twist
Ойын-сауық
April 19th is a historic day in psychedelic culture. Commonly referred to as Bicycle Day, the date celebrates Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann’s discovery of the mind-bending substance called lysergic acid diethylamide - better known as LSD.
Ripley’s friend, Mark McCloud, first educated us on this unusual holiday while the team was in California documenting his expansive collection. McCloud’s San Francisco home is filled with tens of thousands of LSD tabs known as blotters.

Got nothing against using drugs. Just don't drive while you're tripping balls.
If Kanye west makes a big enough donation can he use those pieces of artwork as an umbrella for a special event
