Summer Of Love, Take 2
The resurrection of a style that first permeated the American mainstream in the mid-'60s and peaked in the sultry months of 1967, coincides with an influx of books, films and exhibitions commemorating the 40th anniversary of the Summer of Love in San Francisco.
The florid romanticism -- and drug-induced haze -- of the vaunted psychedelic era is being revisited at the Whitney Museum of American Art in "The Summer of Love: Art of the Psychedelic Era," a show of concert posters from rock emporiums like the fabled Fillmore East in New York, the Fillmore West in San Francisco and clubs like UFO and Fifth Dimension in London.
