Gerald Laing (1936 - 2011), was a British Postwar and Contemporary artist who helped to define the 1960s Pop-Art with huge canvases based on newspaper photographs of famous models, astronauts and film stars: his image of Brigitte Bardot is one of his most famous works.  Often considered as England's Andy Warhol, numerous galleries and museums have featured Gerald Laing's work.  The story is by Galina Golikova, the wife of Gerald Laing.  DMT is the active ingredient in South American psychotropic Ayahuasca, popularized by former Green Bay Packers, now New York Jets Quarterback, Aaron Rodgers.
