Product Description: Los Angeles Pop Art is proud to be the first and only company creating and adapting this style of art to the Pop Art environment. Micrography, the scribal practice of employing minuscule script to create abstract shapes or figurative designs, is an art form that has been used by Jews for over a millennium. This intricate decorative technique was first practiced in Egypt and the Land of Israel in the tenth century.
San Francisco and the Haight gained a reputation as the center of the hippie movement. By 1967 the neighborhood’s fame rested on the fact that a number of important psychedelic rock performers such as Jefferson Airplane, The Grateful Dead and Janis Joplin all lived just a short distance from the intersection of Haight and Ashbury street. They not only immortalized the scene in song, but also knew many within the community as friends and family.
This Haight Ashbury Micrography poster is made using the US Governments official list of the 181 ‘street terms’ for LSD. Measures 24X30.
