The biomechanical art of HR Giger   Swiss artist HR Giger (1940–2014) is most famous for his creation of the space monster in Ridley Scott’s 1979 horror sci-fi film Alien, which earned him an #Oscar. This was one of the more popular expressions of Giger’s biomechanical arsenal of creatures, which merged hybrids of human and machine into images of haunting power and dark psychedelia.   ‘HR Giger’ is available on www.TASCHEN.com and in stores. For collectors, ‘HR Giger’ is also available in limited numbers as a Collector’s Edition, each numbered and signed by Carmen Giger / HR Giger Estate.   03.
