Ilene Meyer: Paintings, Drawings, Perceptions (2005)
This comprehensive monograph celebrates the visionary art of Ilene Meyer (1939–2009), an American painter renowned for her surreal, biomechanical landscapes and intricate alien architectures. The volume spans her career—from 1970s album covers (Blue Öyster Cult) to private commissions—showcasing her fusion of organic forms with industrial precision, often described as “Giger meets Magritte.” Essays explore her influences (Borges, Kubrick) and uncredited contributions to Heavy Metal magazine and 1980s sci-fi concept art.
For Fans of Dark Surrealism:
- H.R. Giger’s Necronomicon – Similar biomechanical nightmares.
- Moebius: The Art of Arzach – French visionary parallels.
- Metropolis: The Art of Syd Mead – Futurist cityscapes.
