HR Giger first received acclaim in the 1960s with his airbrushed fantasy landscapes. However, he scored his big break in applied art, particularly in high-profile movie work, such as his design for Ridley Scott's ""Alien"", which earned him an Oscar. This book was designed by the artist himself and features detailed commentaries in which Giger describes his work from the early 1960s to the present day. 280 illustrations.
