For Gregg Gordon of Gigart it was an honor to be asked by the Jerry Garcia Estate to create this psychedelic art print for Bicycle Day 2019.
Garcia Family Provisions celebrated Bicycle Day, Dr. Albert Hoffman’s famous wide-eyed ride on April 19th, with a limited edition print designed by Gregg Gordon at GIGART. They sold out of their signed and numbered edition of 500, and all of their Foil Variants of editions of 25 each.
GIGART has a limited edition of 30 Artist Prints of the Main Poster. GIGART also has 5 copies of each Foil Variant (sparkle, lava, rainbow and gold mirror) to be made available. Plus a few Blotter Art Paper versions too!
"When I was asked to create this Bicycle Day print, I knew that I wanted to make something psychedelic, colorful and strong. I wanted to juxtapose different images that would relate to Jerry, Bicycle Day, and LSD. I illustrated Jerry as the main focal point surrounded by elements such as a bicycle, stripe patterns from his Cats Under The Stars album, the shapes created by the mind bending liquid light shows, a tiger in reference to his main guitar which is celebrating it’s 40th anniversary this year, roses and more. One last detail was that I imagined Jerry having an out of body experience on LSD, so I drew him up in the corner watching himself in the moment." - Gregg Gordon / GIGART.On sale Tuesday at 10am PDT at https://store.gigart.com/
