Dear H.R. Giger Ticket Holder,

We've made the hard decision to postpone “Alone with the night” exhibition until 2023. While we know this is disappointing, we hope you understand this is the right step to take.

Recently we have had the opportunity to arrange for more original works of art to come from both the H.R. Giger Museum and from private collectors from around the world- the exhibition will be moved from a 7,000 square ft. space to a 23,000 square ft., this means it will be the biggest tour of an H.R. Giger exhibition in history, happening only in L.A.

We have been working hard directly with the H.R. Giger Museum in Switzerland, and the private collectors, to make this happen and to manage all the new logistics and the selection of his most important pieces for the L.A exhibit. This will take time, so we had to move the opening dates- only to make this experience bigger and better!

We are very excited! And we want this to happen as soon as possible, but the wait will be absolutely worth it!

Meanwhile, to our ticket holders, we recommend you keep your tickets, once we announce the new dates, we will send you an email with the instructions on how to reschedule your new dates at no cost. We won’t have many early bird tickets available, so if you get a refund you might lose the opportunity to get a free limited-edition catalogue and t-shirt that you already have!

Please stay tuned for the new dates options that we will be announcing through our social media and our mailing list, once we prepare and set around 13 rooms of Giger’s original art, we will be posting on social media again about what’s coming next and the story behind every piece.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

We'll update you with the new date and location as soon as we can confirm all the art availability.

Thank you for your understanding!

The first steps of H.R. Giger in the film industry were the props he designed for the 1968 film "Swissmade 2069". This film in Switzerland is a peculiar work; It is considered, by the specialists of the genre, as the only science fiction cinematographic work made in Switzerland.

H.R. Giger conceived this work as a tribute to his lover and muse in 1974, Li Tobler, who is the image portrayed in the brooding and relaxed central face. That amalgam of deformities, skulls, bone fragments and a snake on her head, wearing a little necklace with her name around her neck and with a background of brain-eggs, must not have been to the inspiring woman's liking. And of course, the image of a phallus entering his forehead, far from being interpreted as a sexual communion with his mind or wanting to pe*****te his thoughts at the most intimate level, irritated him in such a way that he took a knife and tore the canvas. . Giger could barely shake the idea of ​​setting the painting on fire. Li committed su***de a year later.

It’s easy to imagine pieces such as Landscape XXIX (Babies), depicting a section of an unseen larger group of bio-mechanical babies a very vivid silvery-grey tone as ugly to most people, and in all probability it still is, but just as recent art movements have sought to emphasise the beauty of the normal rather than the beauty of the traditional sense, Giger’s work in it’s very initial stages was showing us images of the grotesque using methods traditionally associated with more beautific art.

Passage came in a dream inspiration. The later paintings in the series would feature re-workings of a photograph he had taken of a garbage truck in Cologne, Germany in 1971. Giger was fascinated by its representation of a ‘mechanical-erotic act.

Even the eroticism of his work is skewed from the perspective of most erotic artists. The sense of eroticism displayed in the majority of his work is distinctly mechanical. Pieces such the 1977 Stillbirth Machine III, an acrylic on wood piece are rather disturbing to think too much about.

You can say that HR Giger is the Architect Of Our Nightmares. He studied architecture, interior and industrial design, he made his first paintings as art therapy.

Stepping through its doors is a plunge into the immersive artistic of his creator. From floor to ceiling, the entire bar is a mirror of the unique work of HR Giger. This biomechanical atmosphere can be found even in the furniture with its bone like structures.
