Louis Abolafia (February 23, 1941 – October 30, 1995) was an artist, social activist, and folk figure. His candidacy for president of the United States under the Nudist Party on the Hippie 'Love Ticket' various times in the 1960s and onward was a form of political theater or performance art. He "ran" against Richard Nixon in 1968 as the naked Hippie "love candidate" with the slogan: "What Have I Got to Hide?" Abolafia previously had run in 1967 under the Cosmic Love Party, even then with the slogan "What Have I Got to Hide?" He was a "descendant of the Abolafias—writers of the Kabbala".

  • Louis Abolafia (February 23, 1941 – October 30, 1995) was an artist, social activist, and folk figure. His candidacy for president of the United States under the Nudist Party on the Hippie 'Love Ticket' various times in the 1960s and onward was a form of political theater or performance art. He "ran" against Richard Nixon in 1968 as the naked Hippie "love candidate" with the slogan: "What Have I Got to Hide?" Abolafia previously had run in 1967 under the Cosmic Love Party, even then with the slogan "What Have I Got to Hide?" The son of a New York City florist, Abolafia was part of the Greenwich Village art scene in the 1960s. In this capacity, he organized "love-ins" and "happenings" that combined music, poetry and audience participation, inspiring the New York press to crown him "The Love King". He was a long-time resident of the Lower East Side, where he sheltered wayward youths and other transients in his storefront studio in the East Village. He published a pornographic/countercultural newspaper, Abolafia's Luv, and had several art exhibitions from 1967 to 1970. He befriended a number of notable 1960s artists, including Bob Dylan, artist Yayoi Kusama, Beat poet Allen Ginsberg, Andy Warhol (and other Factory hangers-on), Canadian socialite Margaret Trudeau, and Satsvarūpa Dāsa Gosvāmī, a senior disciple of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founder of the Hare Krishna movement. Abolafia inspired the creation of the Exotic Erotic Ball in 1979 in San Francisco, held annually for more than three decades until it was canceled in 2010. In press materials for the first Ball, which was held as a campaign fundraiser for Abolafia, he was claimed to have coined the phrase "Make love, not war!", though the attribution is disputed. He was a "descendant of the Abolafias—writers of the Kabbala". (en)
