About this product
Product Information
Swiss artist HR Giger (1940-2014) is most famous for his creation of the space monster in Ridley Scott's 1979 horror sci-fi film Alien , which earned him an Oscar. Yet this was just one of the most popular expressions of Giger's biomechanical arsenal of creatures, which consistently merged hybrids of human and machine into images of haunting power and dark psychedelia. The visions drew on demons of the past, as well as evoking mythologies for the future. Above all, they gave expression to the collective fears and fantasies of his age: fear of the atom, of pollution and wasted resources, and of a future in which our bodies depend on machines for survival. Following the SUMO-sized monograph which was begun shortly before the artist's unexpected death, this affordable anniversay edition pays homage to Giger's unique vision. The book shows the complete story of Giger's life and art, his sculptures, film design, and iconic album covers as well as the heritage he left us in his own artist's museum and self-designed bar in the Swiss Alps. In an in-depth essay, Giger scholar Andreas J. Hirsch plunges into the themes of the artist's oeuvre while an extensive biography draws on contemporary quotes and Giger's own statements.

A magnificent volume, a lovingly designed homage that does justice to the significance of this artist... One thing is certain: most celebrated contemporary artists quickly fall back into obscurity, but HR Giger will remain., At its essence, Giger's art digs down into our psyches and touches our very deepest primal instincts and fears. His art stands in a category of its own. The proof of this lies in the intensity of his work and imagination, which I can only compare to Hieronymus Bosch and Francis Bacon in their powers to provoke and disturb.

I delayed in responding, because we didn’t have an opportunity to view it until yesterday (2.15.2024). The item was as described, new, and packaged as such. Upon viewing the video, we had no issues. The video was fairly priced, and I wish we would have received it sooner, but, I can’t complain because shipping was free. Nonetheless, I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again

The item I purchased was a Hasbro collectibles/Star Wars vintage collection the Mandalorian/ET – ST . Once again, there was no communication. The item arrived packed well, with nothing broken. Yeah I didn’t arrive that advertised. The problem with eBay live is you need to know what you’re doing before you put a bid in on anything. If you’re going to buy something know what it’s going to cost you . Because it says $71 on the screen it’s gonna cost you almost $90. I paid too much for this too. Ver
