Affiliate Link – Biomech Art: Surrealism, Cyborgs and Alien Universes
When you buy several different art books online your e-mail is likely to drop awesome stuff on you, such as the new Biomech Art: Surrealism, Cyborgs and Alien Universes* curated by Martin de Diego Sadaba. Listed at 256 pages, the book is a collection of artwork that — even if the description didn’t tell us — was inspired by the works of H. R. Giger. Looks gorgeous, and at $30 I’m adding this one to my wish list so that I do not forget it.
H. R. Giger created the world of the 1980 Alien movie without the benefit of a Mac and is still a major inspiration for today’s obsessive digital artists. Now a collection of artists working in surrealist biomechanical graphis in art, computer games, and movies with far more powerful tools at their disposal to create their own alien art are pushing the boundaries of the visual—the new Gigers. This book features more than 50 top artists from around the world working in the genre where the boundaries between computer games and movies increasingly blur.
