Marjorie Cameron, “Peyote Vision” (1955)
"The poet, occultist and artist Marjorie Cameron Parsons Kimmel (1922-1995), better known as Cameron, was a follower of the British occult leader Alistair Crowley, a star of Kenneth Anger’s short film Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome and a muse for artists including George Herms and Wallace Berman. When Berman included a reproduction of Cameron’s drawing "Peyote Vision" (1955) in an exhibition at Ferus Gallery, the LAPD shut down the show for indecency. After the incident, Cameron said she would never show her work at a commercial gallery again."
