Abstract

In 1938, doctors Eric Guttmann and Walter Maclay, two psychiatrists based at the Maudsley Hospital in London, administered the hallucinogenic drug mescaline to a group of artists, asking the participants to record their experiences visually. These artists included the painter Julian Trevelyan, who was associated with the British surrealist movement at this time. Published as ‘Mescaline hallucinations in artists’, the research took place at a crucial time for psychiatry, as the discipline was beginning to edge its way into the scientific arena. Newly established, the Maudsley Hospital received Jewish émigrés from Germany to join its ranks. Sponsored by the Rockefeller Foundation, this group of psychiatrists brought with them an enthusiasm for psychoactive drugs and visual media in the scientific study of psychopathological states. In this case, Guttmann and Maclay enlisted the help of surrealist artists, who were harnessing hallucinogens for their own revolutionary aims. Looking behind the images, particularly how they were produced and their legacy today, tells a story of how these groups cooperated, and how their overlapping ecologies of knowledge and experience coincided in these remarkable inscriptions.

1 Hallucinogenic drugs (also referred to as hallucinogens) are substances which act on the brain to alter perception, mood and cognitive processes, often with accompanying somatic symptoms. The term itself is a misnomer, as their defining characteristic is not ‘hallucino-genesis’. Rather, their primary action is to alter consciousness, often in the absence of hallucinations. Hallucinogens are thought to act via the serotonin (5HT subtype 2A) receptor in the central nervous system. Other drugs that also cause hallucinations (amphetamines such as MDMA), but act via different mechanisms, and lack the same perceptual effects, are not classified as hallucinogens. There are two broad subtypes: the tryptamines (DMT, LSD and psilocybin) and phenethylamines (mescaline) which are thought to act on the 5HT2A receptors via different binding mechanisms.

4 Julian Otto Trevelyan was born in Surrey, England, in 1910. Trevelyan initially read English at Trinity College, Cambridge, but left in the summer of 1931 to pursue a career as an artist. In Paris he became a student of surrealism, attending Léger and Ozenfant's Académie moderne, then the Grande Chaumière, and studying etching and engraving at the printmaker S.W. Hayter's atelier, where he worked alongside surrealist artists such as Max Ernst, André Masson and Joan Miró. In 1934, he returned to London. Trevelyan was officially associated with the British surrealist movement from 1936 to 1938. He contributed five artworks to the International Surrealist Exhibition at the Burlington Galleries in June 1936. He also attended meetings and wrote for surrealist journals, such as Eugene Jola's Transition. He later went on to lecture at Chelsea School of Art and taught etching at the Royal College of Art.

36 Full quote from Ronald Arthur Robinson (nickname Sam) in interview with C. Hilton: ‘Mayer-Gross was a warm ebullient pyknic with a sparkling eye. A week or two after my arrival he invited me to come to his office at nine o'clock in the morning. My colleagues warned me that this would be for my statutory dose of LSD – and so it turned out; no ifs or buts. After the colourless and tasteless drink my reactions and sensations were monitored for the next four hours by MG, Robert Klein and (I think) John Raven, Director of Psychological Research. Among the various procedures was an EEG. My peers had regaled me the previous evening with expectations of vivid visual and tactile hallucinations, pictures sliding down walls and multiple delusions. To my disappointment none of these occurred; it was for me a complete non-event’.
