Trippy Buttons of the '60s showcases a collection of illustrated pins depicting themes ranging from spiritual discovery to psychedelic drug use.

1966 saw a phenomenal rise in the use of wearable pins, having previously been used mainly for conventions and political campaigns. The epicenter of this recontextualized, new fad which leaned towards pop culture slogans and anti-war activism, was the San Francisco Bay Area of the hippie era, but pins were soon being produced and sold nationwide wherever young people congregated.

Jacaeber Kastor (b. 1955) is an American artist, gallerist, writer, collector & researcher who is primarily concerned with Psychedelic Art in it's many forms. Kastor owned Psychedelic Solution Gallery in NYC from 1986 to 2004. Raised in Berkeley, CA, mother Sue Kastor was an Abstract Expressionist painter who later taught art there. Jacaeber's lifelong obsession with detail has informed his art and occupational approach, partially as a result of taking psychedelics and being inspired by the limitless forms of the material and imaginative universe, and partially due to his attention-surplus traits.
