as an ilustrator and designer, i find Giger a much needed way of guiding, as i believe i have same thinking in many ways. And I just fuckin love his way he done the artworks. All of them!
@TheWONDERBOYZ1 Yup. Ik and Uk from Darkseed 2 are hanging out at 1:56. Most of the artwork in those games seem to have just been random existing Giger pictures shopped together.
And even if I did, only people with a serious shortage of meaningful human interaction would deem it noteworthy. But I guess people who still have idols when they're 26 and call them "second father" are likely in that group.
If you have seen 1980's "The Twlight Zone" movie. The Little Anthony part. Upstairs in the house, he has a sister who is constantly watching the television. The only room, lighting, is from the TV. That blue/grey hue, drabness. Then they show you her face viewing the screen. Her eyes are totally full of fright. Her mouth...Well__see the movie. I'll bet a lot of people have the same reaction after watching this outstanding segment.
I've seen too much comments about religion here, this is art! stricly art!!, and i like his art, religion have nothing to do with this, his art is beatiful... I don't know why these zealots are always misinterpreting surreal art.
Watch my word: Things like this will happen. Fusions of machine with human, landscapes created out of that. Maybe that's why I like this so much. I can't get enough of his art I keep watching to it and it even inspires me.
Giger sez" with my art I want to survive " as if it was only pictures... May be he'll print one day that , his work carrys one truth no word can lift up. Our fathers have known this earthly & diabolical paradise when whole nations were feverishly burying in the vast cemeteries of WW & death industry in last century. And our kids will experience the same ecstasy in the great massacres the tireless Morlocks' people is coocking us from Langley to Nahal Soreq. Giger will learn soon enough
The art is terrible, but at the same time, it is beautiful. It encapsulates hatred, evil, all sorts of wretched things, but at the same time, it only does so as a release of said things from the artist's body and soul. True artwork, even if it is disturbing and demonic.
I know a guy who has Giger wallpaper in his bedroom! And he cant understand why he has bad dreams. How could you do it? There are some funny people out there.
I visited the hr giger museum in gruyeres when I was in switzerland. he was very talented and he created so many pieces of work. But the stuff he created was sedistic at times. there was a little red room with red curtains covering the entrance, there was a sculpture of a womans pussy and asshole repeated again and again. there was even a picture of and early version of alien with a penis coming out of his mouth. wtf There was so much references to sex in his work it was a bit to much.
You must be new to his art. If you have read many of his books, they go into detail on why he does art like this. Firstly, drawing out his nightmares gives him a little relief from his night terrors. Secondly, his art is a warning to modern society, as many of his works depict future worlds ravaged by technology misuse, and how future humans need to merge with their technology to survive. He is also concerned with overpopulation- example: walls of bodies in his art.
I am a Christian, so I naturally don't think very highly of HR Giger, but his art is truly AMAZING, I love it. It brings me back to my days as a child, and back to the thoughts, images and dreams I was experiencing from 7-13 years old as a result of a parents death. These thoughts are also what led me into the Occult and border-line Satanism, but I still find it fascinating. Since I found God, these things no longer try my patience, but I also miss being scared, for now theres no fears to face.
@a4d2d0 - "I am a Christian, so I naturally don't think very highly of HR Giger"
I know Christians who think very highly of HR Giger and even find Christian-suited inspiration in his works. Mr. Giger uses daring, controversial and (sometimes) disturbing imagery but he doesn't promote evil (or the 'border-line satanism' you mentioned) - quite on the contrary. Giger has shown through multiple artworks a deep respect for themes such as world peace, the value of life and the environment.
a) haven't seen much of Giger's work (specially some of his older drawings).
b) misinterpret surreal art.
c) don't interpret surreal art.
d) simply dislike shocking styles.
If it's the last case, all I can say is that if someone explores universal themes like global-scale pollution, overpopulation, war, despotism, technocracy or life itself in a shocking but non-harmful manner and if you don't like it because it's still shocking your taste, then just ignore it.
(2/2) I never saw Giger promoting dehumanization and, as for what you call demonic erotica, well not everyone reads it the same way you do. Pablo Picasso, Hieronymous Bosch, Giotto, the Limbourg Bros., M. Grunewald, Frans Francken and Stephen Hickman have all made horribly shocking or grotesque-looking works but I don't see anyone accusing them of promoting dehumanization, demonology or malice... "Clockwork Orange" is a shockingly violent film but it's actually critical towards violence.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@MdP2 Dehumanization, how can you not see it? Mixing man and machine into a cyborg hybrid and then illustrating these creations having sex with aliens. Thats not dehumanization? Stripping away human qualities and throwing the images over a background of pentagrams and horned-deities? Thats not demonic? You don't "read it" as demonic, but the imagery is all there. Perhaps your just in denial to satisfy your conscience. These are Giger illustrations, not Hickman or Grunewald.
Portraying futuristic worlds tempered by technological misuses and the merge of man/animal with machines is not the same as promoting dehumanization. Stating Giger wishes to "dehumanize" is almost like saying that Lovecraft worshiped extraterrestrials or that Orwell admired over-controlled despotic "Big Brother" societies or that Mario Puzo was a member of the Italian Mafia.
H. R. Giger doesn't "tell" us to adopt demonic/satanic behaviors and he himself describes his 'visions' as nightmares, not as lollypop dreams. Giger has 'grotesque', 'occult' and 'biomechanical' written all over him, but if someone wants to be an esoterically dehumanized cyborg engaged to an ET, don't blame it on Giger. The use of 'demonic' imagery has been used throughout History and 'depicting' is not the same as 'promoting' - HRGiger doesn't promote evil, he depicts it.
And what's your point? All the artists I mentioned had the right to portray shocking things but such right should not be allowed to Mr. Giger? Giger said that depicting his 'visions' is like an exorcism - This is neither illegal or unethical. Even if H. R. Giger was the biggest black magic voodoo makumba pro-satan witch sorcerer in the world, he should still have the right to portray whatever he wanted as long as lawfully and ethically (which he does).
@a4d2d0"Perhaps your just in denial to satisfy your conscience"
First, only people without a clean conscience need to satisfy it - I'm not that case. Secondly, I don't deny that Giger's works are frequently as beautiful as horrible - That's one of his main qualities. If I can see multiple aspects while some people can only see one then I guess I'm more open-minded. If I can see the ethical concerns of Giger behind his 'horror mask' while some people can't, it's not my fault.
He has been so influential over the last 4 decades and continues to inspire. Giger cracked open a passage to a place that has been explored by many artists, musicians, writers, film makers etc. His work is truly awe inspiring, he`s a genuine genius.
I loved hearing him talk about his own work, particularly the way that it's not actually him, just things he's felt. I draw weird/dark things (but seriously not that well lol) and a lot of my friends are like "wtf that's so weird" and they probably think I'm weird too but it's just things I draw, not actually what i'm like.
to me, hes the BEST artist ever who brings out the subject of nightmares and darkness in art!! such a massive impact his work has!! you can love it or hate but it strikes a serious note in us all!! id hate to have his dreams!!!
I dont really see how his art has "changed", but personally I think that's a good thing. The problem with art is that, if there are many amazing artists like giger, that takes the preciousness away. I totally know how Giger feels, as my art is sometimes really dark and strange also. I absolutely love art, and my walls are covered with it. I know the feeling of the shame, it is just a result of contrasting positivity between the viewer and the creator.
I don't know why, but I adore his dark and macabre work.
I still admire these biomechanical nightmares above all the other artworks I've seen in my life so far.
However, I'm a little bit bothered with the fact that I'm actually attracted to this stuff, 'cause I enjoy life so much; I would think twice about saying this is my style or something like that.
Yet still, I'm quite positive this work appeals to me.
Giger's work charms and has an incredible appeal and looks so real because he's a real genius. There are other modern dark artists, but they are likely only talents. There's a great difference between genius and talent-- talents are very skillful, but their imagery is only a result of temporal fantasy and vivid imagination.
Giger, on the other hand, is invocated by out of our world forces and is able to channel his visions and feelings of descending worlds and express them into art. Our world is just a layer in array of worlds. We all have memories of these worlds buried deep down in our souls and that is why his work looks so frighteningly real and like imported straight from another world, this is no joke.
@negativethoughts - (interesting name :) Yes. I am a dark artist, and I dont mean dark fantasy, I mean some really twisted abstractionism and horror sometimes. You are correct. It is nothing to do with "Satanism" or personality. It is simply because the people around dont see anything positive about dark art, because they are weak minded :)
Giger's dreams seem to be born from WWII 's german soldiers holocaust . The deep & steep drop from family life & love to the wide meadows of russian beyonds full of cadavers under grass tombs . The horror of the same young Russian & German brothers buried under the same nowhere . Those Giger images , watched after reading some testimonial books telling these times stories, drive me to what I imagin as German dream of death ,it's a deep evil & marvelous truth .
the stuff of nightmares. don't know if anyone had picked up a computer games based on his art. it came out about 10 - 15 years ago. the company that i work for packed the game
Hi thanks for reply. just got off google and found the name then saw your reply. the game had came on the pc, mac amiga and amiga cd32 [ps and saturn in japan]
Imagine visiting his studio and he'd say "excuse me, I have to step out for a minute." He'd probably be upset that he would have to pay the maid extra to get the blood and gore off the walls...
First 20 seconds of this video: hired, no-existing for milions existances, truth about human nature and his sad life. We are drifting in emptiness, (except pure eternal sadness ). The man is evil one, and this is a hope. Without evil, we would be...I even can't really imagine this, I'm just still watching , still watching..
Just incredible...it is the work of a pure genius/mad man. It is a depiction of purity in the most primitive form of horror, madness, pain, evil and art. I have always been intreged with Gigers biomechanical style. I think it is his subconscious which makes is night terrors come to life... his own personal hell.
i have had dreams like this, not exactly night terrors but the walls seemed biomechanical, and there were these people with long heads like the aliens and they torture people with all sorts of machines, it was horrible!
two days ago I saw this woman in a dream. She was seated in a Giger-like chair, strapped by Xenomorphs and something was glued on her face and her face melted. She screamed and my view zoomed out and the walls were full of biomechanical hands,legs,heads etc. Dreams are the shit

I would love to own a H.R. Giger designed home, and inside that home everything would be designed by H.R. Giger.
H.R. Giger sofas
H.R. Giger table and seats
H.R. Giger Bedroom and living room
even an actual Ibanez H.R. Giger designed RG Guitar, better if its an Ibanez Xiphos 7-string guitar designed by H.R. Giger
H.R. Giger toilet...that would be the best thing inside the whole house.

I dont really see how his art has "changed", but personally I think that's a good thing. The problem with art is that, if there are many amazing artists like giger, that takes the preciousness away. I totally know how Giger feels, as my art is sometimes really dark and strange also. I absolutely love art, and my walls are covered with it. I know the feeling of the shame, it is just a result of contrasting positivity between the viewer and the creator.

I don't know why, but I adore his dark and macabre work.
I still admire these biomechanical nightmares above all the other artworks I've seen in my life so far.
However, I'm a little bit bothered with the fact that I'm actually attracted to this stuff, 'cause I enjoy life so much; I would think twice about saying this is my style or something like that.
Yet still, I'm quite positive this work appeals to me.

Giger's work charms and has an incredible appeal and looks so real because he's a real genius. There are other modern dark artists, but they are likely only talents. There's a great difference between genius and talent-- talents are very skillful, but their imagery is only a result of temporal fantasy and vivid imagination.

Giger, on the other hand, is invocated by out of our world forces and is able to channel his visions and feelings of descending worlds and express them into art. Our world is just a layer in array of worlds. We all have memories of these worlds buried deep down in our souls and that is why his work looks so frighteningly real and like imported straight from another world, this is no joke.

you can say he's mad, or he's a satanism whatever, but at the end of the day he is expressing the feelings from bad memories-that is all.

@negativethoughts - (interesting name :) Yes. I am a dark artist, and I dont mean dark fantasy, I mean some really twisted abstractionism and horror sometimes. You are correct. It is nothing to do with "Satanism" or personality. It is simply because the people around dont see anything positive about dark art, because they are weak minded :)

Giger's dreams seem to be born from WWII 's german soldiers holocaust . The deep & steep drop from family life & love to the wide meadows of russian beyonds full of cadavers under grass tombs . The horror of the same young Russian & German brothers buried under the same nowhere . Those Giger images , watched after reading some testimonial books telling these times stories, drive me to what I imagin as German dream of death ,it's a deep evil & marvelous truth .

Imagine visiting his studio and he'd say "excuse me, I have to step out for a minute." He'd probably be upset that he would have to pay the maid extra to get the blood and gore off the walls...

First 20 seconds of this video: hired, no-existing for milions existances, truth about human nature and his sad life. We are drifting in emptiness, (except pure eternal sadness ). The man is evil one, and this is a hope. Without evil, we would be...I even can't really imagine this, I'm just still watching , still watching..

Just incredible...it is the work of a pure genius/mad man. It is a depiction of purity in the most primitive form of horror, madness, pain, evil and art. I have always been intreged with Gigers biomechanical style. I think it is his subconscious which makes is night terrors come to life... his own personal hell.

two days ago I saw this woman in a dream. She was seated in a Giger-like chair, strapped by Xenomorphs and something was glued on her face and her face melted. She screamed and my view zoomed out and the walls were full of biomechanical hands,legs,heads etc. Dreams are the shit
