Electrical Banana: Masters of Psychedelic Art is the first definitive
examination of the international language of psychedelia,
focusing on the most important practitioners in their respective
fields with a deft combination of hundreds of unseen images
and exclusive interviews and essays, Electrical Banana aims to
revise the common perception of psychedelic art, showing it to
be more innovative, compelling, and revolutionary than was
ever thought before.
The artists include: Marijke Koger, a Dutch artist responsible for
dressing the Beatles; Mati Klarwein, who painted the cover for
Miles Davis Bitches Brew; Keiichi Tanaami, the Japanese master
of psychedelic posters; Heinz Edelmann, the German illustrator
and designer of the Yellow Submarine animated film; Tadanori
Yokoo, whose prints and books, defined the ‘60s in Japan; Dudley
Edwards, a painter, car decorator, and graphic embellisher for
the London rock scene, and the enigmatic Australian Martin
Sharp, whose work for Cream and underground magazines
made him a hippie household name in Europe.
