Description: EDITORS’ NOTE This collection of outstanding science fiction artwork highlights a wide spectrum of jacket art commissioned over the years for Doubleday’s Science Fiction Book Club. To accompany these paintings, the featured artists graciously agreed to render self-portraits and provide brief biographical notes about their art background and interest in science fiction. As is evident, each artist responded to our request for this information in his own way. The result: verbal and visual self-portraits of 23 noted illustrators and 46 striking color paintings that capture the distinctive and impressive styles of individuals whose work has graced the covers of countless science fiction book jackets and appeared in many other artistic media. The paintings in this collection were chosen as representative of the wide range of techniques and imagination that characterize modern science fiction art. We hope that you’ll find these paintings of distant planets, spaceships, alien cities, and the aliens themselves an exciting visual treat. Mary Sherwin Ellen Asher Joe Miller This book is missing its jacket, otherwise in good condition with no damaged pages.
