Biomech Art: Surrealism, Cyborgs and Alien Universes

The media could not be loaded.  Biomech Art is an impressive collection of artworks whose theme is a mixture of surrealism, cyberpunk, alien landscapes and dystopia worlds.It's quite a thick hardcover book at 256 pages. Author Martin de Diego Sadaba has curated the works of 28 artists from USA, Europe and Japan for the book.Just look at the cover and you can see that wires are going into the eyes of the character, and her arm actually morphs into wires below the elbow. That's just a teaser for what's inside the book.Some other examples include the Pascal Blanche' 3D art with psychedelic colours, Christopher Conte's steampunk creations, many paintings involving alien-like warped beings, Peter Gric has some wonderful pieces of human-like characters fused into the environment, a few H. R. Giger inspired pieces, scenes from the underworld, transhuman creations, oh and a floating head fused with teddy bears by the skin, and more. Many pieces are quite difficult to describe even.Great book for those into the dark arts. There are lots of disturbingly good and good disturbing stuff to see.The artists featured areAlbino-ZPascal BlancheRiyahd CassiemChristophe ConteJase DanielsMartin de DiegoBernard DumaineAlexander FedosovDavid FrantzPeter GricNaoto HattoriTomasz Alen KoperaSimon LejeuneFabio ListrianiRamon LlansolaPaul McCarrolDusan MarkovicShingo MatsunumaKamal MishmishDaniel Arnold MistKazuhiko NakamuraNoistromoPiotr RuszkowskiKen SarafinSeeming (Seeming Watcher)Tomasz StrzalkowskiSugar Flesh (Liran Szeiman and Martin de Diego)Yang Xueguo(There are more pictures of the book on my blog.

As a sci-fi and horror illustrator, this book scratched an itch to see something beyond and outside the norm of mainstream science fiction and horror art. The work contained within is truly awe inspiring, original and breathtaking in the scope of imagination and skill. You'll find cyborgs, spirits, demons, robots, depictions of hellish torment, and more. Truly a work of dark, umbral art.

I bought this book to get some inspiration for a sculpture I'm working on and it did the trick. I'm not much of a Giger fan, either. There's enough variety in this book to keep it interesting. I would estimate that 80 percent of the book is digital. The title is spot on as the book is full of half man, half machine creations from artists of all styles. Compilation books aren't usually my thing, but this is one of the best I've come across. If you're a hardcore sci-fi or even horror fan you should pick this up.

This is a stunning beautifully-printed and very chunky volume of some amazing world-class artists, including Peter Gric, Tomasz Strzalkowski and (for me) two brilliant new discoveries - Shingo Matsunuma and Pascal Blanche. If you're into the work of H.R. Giger and Beksinski, you'll love this - it's the next generation. I've only had it a few weeks, but I keep going back to it for inspiration - the work is so original and has an incredible inner, mood-shifting energy. I have loads of art books in all genres. This really is one of my favourites. Stunning.

Recently I have purchased a number of BioMech books for the artwork. By far, this one has some of the best artists and the artwork is amazing!

Can't wait to give this to him. I thumbed through the pages last night and it looks pretty awesome. He is a tattoo artist and he enjoys drawing biomech for his clients. Hopefully he enjoys this book as a source of reference material.

stunning abstract work to get inspired , the book is great and pack with a lot of art works from the concept artists. I would recommend this to any fan or concept artist in the industry.

Just an amazing book! With a lot of good illustrators and amazing art. Essencial to anyone interested in biomech art!

My 2d animator sister loved the art here. Great purchase.

Rispetto alla velocità con cui Amazon abitua i propri clienti, questo articolo arriverà un po' più lentamente, ma credetemi... vale la pena di aspettare perché quando arriverà vi ritroverete per le mani un articolo eccellente, di ottima fattura, stampato molto bene e curato nei minimo dettagli. Sfogliarlo è un orgasmo continuo per chi ama questo genere di illustrazioni.

Ótimas ilustrações e tamanhos. Uma ótima qualidade e impressão, adorei o acabamento e o papel usado para a impressão. Deveria só ter preços mais baixos rsrs.

Die Bandbreite reicht von biomechanoiden Grundideen à la Giger bis hin zu modernster Computer Art. Verschiedene Stadien des Düsteren, Mechanischen und Erotischen sind mit einer Prise SciFi und Steampunk gewürzt.Als Einstieg in diese Kunstgattung sowie als Übersicht der auf diesem Feld tätigen Künstler sehr zu empfehlen.

Amazing collection
