AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A stunning large-format book featuring a wide range of Giger's work. A unique opportunity to obtain both Necronomicon volumes in one.
With a facsimile commissioned drawing and signature by Salvador Dalí.
This book contains a collection of his most iconic and unsettling works, known for their biomechanical style and influence on films such as Alien. A must-have for lovers of surrealist art, horror and science fiction. The book is in excellent condition and a valuable addition to any collection.
H.R. Giger, (1940-2014) was a Swiss surrealist artist who became widely known to the public for the work he did for the film Alien, for which he won an Oscar in 1980, and the artworks he created for the sleeves of a number of LPs. His visual style makes use of strong sexual, biomechanical and pornographic references. Giger died suddenly in 2014 after a fall.
"The more famous I become, the more I am tolerated, albeit with a shake of the head."
