4. Alex Grey
Alex Grey is the Pablo Picasso, Vincent Van Gogh and Salvador Dali of hippiedom. If the aforementioned luminaries somehow all got together at Burning Man and consumed copious amounts of LSD and DMT, they might be able to equal a small percentage of the ingenious output of Alex Grey. Known primarily for his quasi-religious and uber-trippy artwork, Alex Grey has also contributed cover art to recordings by hippie-approved bands, such as String Cheese Incident. From full moon gatherings at his spiritual center, the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors, to painting live pieces with his wife at any number of hippie music events, Alex Grey has cemented his legacy as the force to be reckoned with in the hippie art scene.
