Harry Debbie - H. R. Giger: Debbie Harry Metamorphosis: Creating The Visual Concept For Kookoo - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: A beautiful coffee table art book chronicling the extraordinary collaboration between Debbie Harry and H. R. Giger for Harry's 1981 solo album Koo Koo. When the visual artist H. R. Giger best known for his biomechanical creature and set design for seminal 1979 sci - fi - horror film Alien encountered Debbie Harry the punk icon and lead singer of globally successful new wave band Blondie the results were sublime. The artwork for Harry's 1981 debut solo Koo Koo album cover was deemed so frightening it was originally banned on the London Underground. The fantastical videos for two of the tracks on the album Backfired and Now I Know you Know featured Giger himself piercing an Egyptian sarcophagus and a newly brunette Harry reimagined as a xenomorphic Giger creature. With photographs and words by Chris Stein Harry's long - term collaborator artefacts and sketches from the Giger archive and an introduction by Debbie Harry this is an essential behind - the - scenes insight into the processes of an incredible creative partnership.
