SynopsisOnly 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., Master artist H.R. Giger guides us through the grimly beautiful world of his unconscious. The large-scale format of this intriguing book permits close inspection of 184 of Giger's detailed nightmare visions. When combined with commentary, the result is a rare and revelatory grand tour of a master artist's life and psyche. 184 photographs, 160 in color.ng in Heavy Metal and Locus.
For fans of H.R.Giger the large format prints of Biomechanics, Necronomicon and Necronomicon II are the best way to view and appreciate Giger's art outside of having a print on the wall or the original thing. It's unfortunate these volumes are no longer being produced such that finding a intact copy from 1985 at a reasonable price is rare thing.
