I particularly enjoy his landscapes, and his contribution to film and video games.

Great pictures. But I have a bit of a problem with the other alien films in relation to Gigers work. I think its only the original Alien that is true to his artwork. The others seem to have developed aliens that are somehow less fearsome, less disturbing.

yes. i have all his books. i fell in love with his style from the album cover of "Brain Salad Surgery"...don't think Alien needed any sequels.

he hasn't continued to develop as an artist, but what he does is perfect.
