While I am aware of Fuch's work generally I haven't really seen much of it on the Internet but really all this said by me here is a result of endless digging for things of relevance and perhaps Giger's is not one to shine too much light on the inspirations behind his work and what has been written about his work does rarely give much real insight so I'm really pleased about this as a likelihood in the trail for the source of inspiration. It is strange also how the idea of a Nubian has been something that's floating around as well as Scott had the idea of including Nubians of that kind in an earlier project of his inspired by I suppose the photos of Leni Riefenstahl and one just so happened to show up in a pub in England. I'll make sure that I look at more of Fuchs work from the fifties.wmmvrrvrrmmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10052091646279943607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1086941578419555377.post-73364042965424362322012-06-06T09:58:51.988-07:002012-06-06T09:58:51.988-07:00It always has intrigued me why this Fuchs painting...It always has intrigued me why this Fuchs painting from the fifties is never mentioned concerning Giger's alien:<br /><br />http://beinart.org/modules/PHP-gallery/gallery_ImageView.php?gallery_id=646&image_id=1915<br /><br />I mean, basically is all there. Puzzlingly, even the "Nuba anatomy" that Scott later incorporated to Giger's artwork is already there. <br /> <br /><br />Other Fuchs painting from the same period:<br /><br /><br />http://beinart.org/modules/PHP-gallery/gallery_ImageView.php?gallery_id=646&image_id=1914egochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13918845875689070415noreply@blogger.com
