Giger: Basic Art
Autor H. R. Gigeren Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 dec 2019
Der Schweizer Künstler HR Giger (1940-2014) wurde vor allem durch die Gestaltung des Weltraummonsters für Ridley Scotts Scifi-Horrorfilm Alien (1979) berühmt, für das er mit einem Oscar ausgezeichnet wurde. Das Alien ist zweifellos der Star aus Gigers umfangreichem Arsenal biomechanischer Geschöpfe, doch nur eines von vielen Zwitterwesen aus Mensch und Maschine, mit denen Giger unsere Albträume bevölkerte, Kreaturen von eindringlicher Kraft, schrecklicher Schönheit, morbid-erotischer Drastik und surrealer Fantastik. Giger schuf eine völlig eigenständige Bildwelt und verlieh den kollektiven Ängsten seiner Epoche Ausdruck: Angst vor dem Atomkrieg, vor Überbevölkerung und knappen Rohstoffen und einer Zukunft, in der das Überleben unserer Körper von Maschinen abhängen wird. Dieser Band erzählt anhand autobiografischer Texte und einer Fülle exzellent-schauriger Abbildungen Gigers Lebensgeschichte und gibt Einblick in ein überaus facettenreiches Werk. Er zeigt Gigers Skulpturen, Interieurs, Zeichnungen, Gemälde und Plattencover, seine ausgefeilten Setdesigns für Filme wie Species, Alien oder Dune, das einzigartige Giger-Museum und die fantastische, ganz von Giger designte Bar in der Kleinstadt Gruyères in der französischen Schweiz. Das Vorwort schrieb Gigers Freund Timothy Leary.
