Description:


Only once in a great while comes an artist with a completely new vision of the world. An ability to perceive things in a truly revolutionary manner. A talent to communicate through imagery so unique and provocative that it simply cannot be ignored. H.R. Giger is one such artist. As you open this volume, you will enter the netherworld of Giger's rich imagination. You will lock eyes with the milky orbs of the undead, scan the erupting postulant landscapes and gaze upon the bizarre anatomy of his painted offspring---his alien creatures synthesized in a fusion of elegance and grotesquerie--all birthed from the synaptic channel that leads from the depths of the human subconscious to flow out through the brush hand, wielded with such amazing delicacy and precision. Giger's popularity throughout the world has steadily increased, though recognition within the confines of the contemporary art world has lagged. Today's art scene is jammed with those who have found contemporary art for often what it is---the first refuge of the untalented. H.R. Giger's visual eloquence is a rare thing, sublime in its alienness. It transports us in time and space. We may return from the visits, but our perceptions may never be the same
