HR Giger Brille 23/169, Signiert und Nummeriert Edition 169 Exemplar, made by Robert Christoph
$378.81
The Museum HR Giger celebrated its 10th anniversary on June 21, 2008, on that day Hansruedi told me it would be good if you made our glasses in small numbers.
Producing the eyewear industriel is very difficult and expensive,
too many undercuts, but the production forms, inventions and constructs about 100'000.- or more.
I then managed by hand pouring 2 Illuminatus glasses to pour into plastic.
But the mold did not survive the brozetur.
Hansruedi, short HR, Giger was born on February 5, 1940 in Chur. From 1962 he studied architecture and industrial design at the University of Applied Arts in Zurich. The Swiss artist became known worldwide with his "Alien" designs for the eponymous film by Ridley Scott. In 1980 he got the Oscar for visual effects.
In the film sector, he succeeded in addition to the "alien" trilogy about also with his character to "species". Record covers by Giger have been awarded several times, including those for Debbie Harry ("Koo Koo") and Emerson, Lake and Palmer ("Brain Salad Surgery").
