A Vision of the Future: The Art of Chris Foss
RedKalion is proud to present a definitive museum-quality reproduction of the legendary work by Chris Foss. As the visionary illustrator who redefined science fiction aesthetics in the 1970s, Foss introduced the 'used future' concept—massive, weathered spacecraft and industrial megastructures that felt lived-in and tangible. This Chris Foss fine art print captures that cinematic scale, offering a window into a universe of mechanical wonder and cosmic exploration.
This particular 70x100 cm edition is meticulously rendered to satisfy the most discerning collectors. By choosing a Chris Foss Aluminum Print, you are not simply purchasing a wall decoration; you are acquiring a piece of art history that influenced iconic films such as Alien and Jodorowsky’s Dune. The artwork evokes a sense of awe and permanence, making it an ideal centerpiece for modern, sophisticated interiors.
Sophisticated Medium: Brushed Aluminum DIBOND®
To honor the industrial nature of Foss’s subject matter, we have selected Brushed Silver Aluminum DIBOND® as the primary medium. This 3mm (0.12") rigid base features a horizontal grain that adds a dynamic, shimmering quality to the composition. The unique printing process utilizes a direct-to-substrate method, ensuring a matte, glare-free finish that allows the fine details of the mechanical designs to shine through without distraction.
- Material: 3mm Brushed Silver Aluminum DIBOND® with a metallic finish.
- Texture: Visible horizontal grain for a contemporary, industrial look.
- Visual Effect: Unprinted white areas reveal the raw metallic silver effect, enhancing highlights.
- Durability: Highly rigid and archival, designed to endure for generations.
- Installation: Includes a premium hanging kit tailored to your fulfillment region.
