"In many ways, blacklight posters were precursors to the graphic experimentation of punk, new wave, skater and rave art," says gallery owner, John Goss. Part of the great graphic design revolution of the pop era, these posters mimicked the hallucinogenic effects of mind-expanding drugs and featured images culled from nostalgic turn-of-the-century graphics, Op Art, fairy tales, underground comics or popular cartoon characters incorporating themes of sexual liberation, social freedom and rebellion against the buttoned-up 1950s. These exuberant, eye-popping images were created using fluorescent inks that were especially vivid in normal light (earning the nickname of "day-glo" colors), but appeared to magically electrify when viewed under ultra-violet lamps known commonly as black lights. Fifteen classic examples of trippy, hyper-graphic mindscapes are collected together for public viewing in one of the period, mid-century modern ranch homes that Palm Springs is famous for.ĭay-glo Dreamscapes: Vintage Blacklight Posters of the American Pop Era, is curated from the ephemeral, mass-produced art that swept "flower power" culture into teen-age bedrooms across the nation.
