The Giger Tarot

H.R. Giger continually amazes, invoking a deranged specter from a shadow world that seems strangely parallel to our own murky unconscious. In this Tarot set, Giger chooses 22 of his previously published works to represent the major Arcana. Make no mistake- the result is a new perspective, highly stylized and altogether breathtaking in its appeal to the more nightmarish aspects of existence. With this set, accompanied by an insightful and oft-times surprisingly adroit analyses, it is a must have for anyone interested in great art and the symbolism of the tarot. Whether your interest lies primarily in tarot sets or Giger's fantastical art, it will appeal to you regardless of the particular axiom to which you subscribe. These cards may well spark some creativity in those who want to visit new realms of thought as well.
