Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The youth uprising, now simply called The Sixties, was fed by one of the greatest booms in publishing history. The Underground Press Syndicate (UPS) began as a loose confederation of five papers in 1966, and within a few years swelled to over 500 across the world, reaching millions of readers. They spread like weed, said the UPS director, weed-dealer, and eventual founder of High Times, Tom Forcade. The metaphor was apt: the UPS spurred the legalization movement, and weed became its totem.Weed was so pervasive it became a helpful means for government agencies to crack down on the UPS. Weed came to emblematize activist groups, and added a touch of flair to the mastheads of UPS titles. Weed permeated UPS pages, with gaps in text crammed with weed-inspired spot illustratios. Heads Together collects these drawings, shining a light on lesser-known names in the stoner-art canon, and many who werent names at all, as no signature was attached. It also compiles guides for growing weed from the period that were treated like contraband by the CIA. Activist-oriented, psychedelic rolling papers are showcased too.As pot now fast-tracks toward legalization in the U. S. and beyond, its once incendiary status is brought into odd relief. Pots profiteers of the corporate market today do not reflect those who fought for legalization, or the Black and Latino populations strategically criminalized for pot well before hippies were targeted, and long after.The art in this book speaks to a time when pot was smoked with optimism, as something potentially good for society and people, capable of activating profound transformation in the face of corrupt and powerful forces.

They "spread like weed," said the UPS director, weed dealer and eventual founder of High Times Tom Forcade.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A compendium of unseen folk architecture and a cultural history of 1960s NorCal utopianismPublished with Edition Patrick Frey. Half a century ago, a legion of young idealists dropped out of society and went "back to the land," creating a patchwork of utopian communes across Northern California. Handmade Utopia: Back-to-the-Land Architecture in Northern California tracks down the rogue souls still committed to this way of life, capturing their handbuilt, otherworldly residences alongside the stories of how they came to be--at what is now the tail end of one generation's grand social experiment. Handmade Utopia travels the length of Northern California, which formed the epicenter of the movement, journeying down hidden dirt roads and deep into redwood forests to discover handmade homes kept hidden for decades. Michael Schmelling's photography documents how these structures appear today and David Jacob Kramer's oral histories detail how they came to be, and are presented alongside a plethora of archival materials.In the mid-1960s, back-to-the-landers fled a Bay Area that had become over-policed and overrun with runaways, drugs and commercial exploitation. These new pioneers taught themselves to farm, practiced free love and generated radical new architectural styles. Only a fraction of these pioneers stuck it out for the decades following the Summer of Love. These flinty souls remain a study in principled self-reliance and human ingenuity. They are now in their 70s and 80s and the question arises of what they will leave behind, literally and figuratively. For decades they have kept these experimental homes hidden, long fearful of building inspectors and drug squads. Handmade Utopia presents these structures as artworks in their own right, captured at a moment when they risk being lost forever.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Die Jugendproteste der sechziger Jahre wurden von einem der größten Pressebooms der Geschichte getragen. Das Underground Press Syndicate (UPS), das 1966 noch ein lockerer Zusammenschluss von fünf Zeitungen war, zählte innerhalb von wenigen Jahren über 500 Publikationen und Millionen von Leser:innen weltweit. «Sie vermehrten sich wie Unkraut (=weed)» sagte Tom Forcade, UPS Direktor, Weed Dealer und späterer Gründer von High Times. Ein passender Vergleich: Das Underground Press Syndicate engagierte sich für die Legalisierung von Marihuana, und das Hanfblatt wurde zum Symbol dieser Legalisierungskampagne. Weed war so omnipräsent, dass es für die Behör-den ein Leichtes war gegen das UPS vorzugehen. Weed war zum Emblem von Aktivistengruppen gewor-den und verlieh dem UPS Impressum sein besonderes Flair. Weed schlich sich in die Textlücken auf den Seiten ein und füllte sie mit Spot Illustrationen, die Weed zum Thema hatten. Heads Together stellt eine Auswahl von diesen Spot Illustrationen zusammen, in der weniger bekannte Künstler:innen und auch No-Names ins Blickfeld rücken, von denen viele ihre Werke nie signiert haben. Aktivistisch-psychedelisches Zigarettenpapier und Handbücher zu Anbau und Verarbeitung von Hanf werden auch gezeigt. Letztere wurden von der CIA als Banngut behandelt. Da die USA wie viele andere Länder dabei sind Marihuana zu legalisieren, erscheint dieses aufrühreri-sche, staatsfeindliche Imageinzwischen eher komisch. Die Pot-Profiteure auf dem von Konzernen beherrschten Markt interessieren sich nicht für die Legalisie rungs-aktivist:innen von damals und ebensowenig wie für die Schwarzen und Latinos, die lange vor und nach den Hippies systematisch verfolgt wurden.…
