H.R. Giger (312)
Welcome to the section of the acclaimed Swiss surrealist H. R. Giger, creator of the terrifying life forms and their otherworldly environment in the film classic ALIEN, for which he received the Oscar in 1980. Painter, sculptor, designer, interior architect, Giger extends his artistic vision into all domains. Fundamental to the nature of his work is
his Biomechanical aesthetic, a dialectic between man and machine, representing a universe at once disturbing and sublime.

Alien, Biomechanical Landscape, Biomechanoid ...
M.C. Escher (99)
Escher was a individual artist. He incorporated the fantasy of Monet, the logic and precision of Michaelangelo, the perspective and three-dimensional vision of Wright, and the patterns of the Moors, into his own woodcuts, lithographs, and drawings. He created impossible worlds and outlandish creatures. His inspiration, the Moors of Alhambra, Spain, lead him to create wonderful tesselations of people, animals, and geometric shapes.
Rene Magritte (86)
Rene Magritte is today remembered as Belguim's greatest 20th century artist and one of the godfathers of surrealism. He is on the summit of surrealism with Salvador Dali, looking down on the likes of Max Ernst and Marcel Duchamp.
Salvador Dalì (165)
A flamboyant painter and sometime writer, sculptor and experimental film-maker, Salvador Dali was probably the greatest Surrealist artist, using bizarre dream imagery to create unforgettable and unmistakable landscapes of his inner world. His most famous work is The Persistence Of Memory.

Dali often clashed with Andr

Edward Munch (21)
"We want more than a mere photograph of nature. We do not want to paint pretty pictures to be hung on drawing-room walls. We want to create, or at least lay the foundations of, an art that gives something to humanity. An art that arrests and engages. An art created of one's innermost heart." (E.M.)
Wassily Kandinsky (47)
Kandinsky, himself an accomplished musician, once said Color is the keyboard, the eyes are the harmonies, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key or another, to cause vibrations in the soul. The concept that color and musical harmony are linked has a long history, intriguing scientists such as Sir Isaac Newton. Kandinsky used color in a highly theoretical way associating tone with timbre (the sound's character), hue with pitch, and saturation with the volume of sound. He even claimed that when he saw color he heard music.
Francisco de Goya (104)
Goya was a portraitist of royalty and chronicler of history who produced painting and prints. His later influence is significant since his art was both deeply subversive and subjective, at a time when such attitudes were not predominant. His emphasis on the foreground and faded background portends the work of Manet.

Many of Goya's works are on display at the Museo del Prado.
