Clay Wilson, Jonathan Shaw, Pushead, and Axel Stocks. A “hip, funky space,” Psychedelic Solution hosted the work of poster artists, pop-surreal / lowbrow artists, and street artists. Kastor was interested in showing unconventional but popular art. In 1990 he traveled to Tepic, Mexico to pick up artwork by Cristobal Gonzalez for his upcoming “Huichol Yarn” exhibit of paintings, and was arrested by Mexican police with Carlo McCormick, Leo and Raven Mercado, and Prem Das on charges of conspiracy to export peyote. The gallery closed in Nov 2004. Kastor was bought out, and the commercial inventory and archives were trucked away. Over 500,000 pieces of printed material and fine art were sold.
