"These are like cool Magic Cards!" - the sometimes disturbing (and sometimes NSFW) art of Alfred Kubin.

A better title for this one would have been "OMG HAI!"

I'm wondering what google terms I could possibly use to look for the Geiger picture that's like the NSFW one.

I can't see it here at work I'm afraid, but for Geiger the following search terms are usually handy:

"TUBE TO FACILITATE BREATHING YOUR OWN CROTCH"

"PHALLUS SKULL"

"HIGH CALIBER NIPPLES"

"MATRIOSHKA NIGHTMARE"

"SURPRISE BIOMECHANICAL BUTTSEX"

"SWEET SHIT I WANT THAT DINING SUITE, WISH I KNEW PEOPLE I COULD INVITE"

Also: "Sigourney + panties"

Isn't MATRIOSHKA NIGHTMARE a Laundry casename?

Thanks, Artw. These are excellent.

I wish I could see a larger image of the stealthy watcher.

There was a wonderful exhibition of his work in the Neue Galerie, New York, which ran until January 26th. Wonderfully disturbing.
