| Abstract |
|
This article investigates the influence of perception that is altered by psychedelic drugs on processes of creativity through a case study of the work of well-known comic artist Robert Crumb. Samples of Crumb’s work before, during, and after the period of his use of psychedelic drugs are content analyzed and compared according to the categorization offered by Janiger and Dobkin de Rios (1989). The results of the comparison indicate that Robert Crumb’s drug use significantly altered the stylistic approach of his artwork not only during the period of his drug use, but long after he had stopped using drugs.
