Swiss artist H.R. Giger, who designed the creature in Ridley Scott's sci-fi horror classic "Alien," has died at age 74 from injuries suffered in a fall, his museum said Tuesday. Sandra Mivelaz, administrator of the H.R. Giger museum in Gruyeres, western Switzerland, told The Associated Press that Giger died in a hospital on Monday. Giger's works, often showing macabre scenes of humans and machines
fused into hellish hybrids, influenced a generation of movie directors
and inspired an enduring fashion for "biomechanical" tattoos. "My paintings seem to make the strongest impression on people who
are, well, who are crazy," Giger said in a 1979 interview with Starlog
magazine. "If they like my work they are creative ... or they are
crazy." Born Hans Ruedi Giger on Feb. 5, 1940, in the southeastern Swiss town
of Chur, he trained as an industrial designer because his father
insisted that he learn a proper trade. His mother Melli, to whom he showed a lifelong devotion, encouraged
her son's passion for art, despite his unconventional obsession with
death and sex that found little appreciation in 1960s rural Switzerland.
The host of one of his early exhibitions was reportedly forced to wipe
the spit of disgusted neighbors off the gallery windows every morning. A collection of his early work, "Ein Fressen fuer den Psychiater" —
"A Feast for the Psychiatrist" — used mainly ink and oil, but Giger soon
discovered the airbrush and pioneered his own freehand technique. He
also created sculptures, preferably using metal, styorofoam and plastic. Giger's vision of a human skull encased in a machine appeared on the
cover of "Brain Salad Surgery," a 1973 album by the rock band Emerson,
Lake and Palmer. Along with his design for Debbie Harry's solo album,
"Koo Koo" (1981), it featured in a 1991 Rolling Stone magazine list of
the top 100 album covers of all time. Giger went on to work as a set designer for Hollywood, contributing to
"Species," ''Poltergeist II," ''Dune," and most famously "Alien," for
which he received a 1979 Academy Award for special effects. Frequently
frustrated by the Hollywood production process, Giger eventually
disowned much of the work that was attributed to him on screen. The image of a brooding, mysterious artist was nurtured by Giger
working only at night, keeping his curtains permanently drawn and
dressing mainly in black — a habit he acquired while working as a
draftsman because it made Indian ink stains stand out less on his
clothes. While his work was commercially successful, critics derided it as
morbid kitsch. His designs were exhibited more frequently in "Alien"
theme bars, short-lived Giger museums and at tattoo conventions than in
established art galleries. In 1998, Giger acquired the Chateau St. Germain in Gruyeres and established the H.R. Giger Museum. Giger was pleased that his idea of machines with human skin became a popular motif in body art. "The greatest compliment is when people get tattooed with my work,
whether it's done well or not," he told Seconds magazine in 1994. "To
wear something like that your whole life is the largest compliment
someone can pay to you as an artist." Details on survivors and funeral plans were not immediately available. (AP)
