Grab your retro-futuristic space suits and ray-guns today is all about Sci-Fi novels!
From the far reaches of the galaxy to the urban technological landscape, bionic arms to complex love stories, our exhibition Station Zero featured a large, diverse collection of vintage science fiction novels, that have been recreated and designed by illustrators from all over the world. Paying homage to the original illustrations, authors, and genre, each artist has reinterpreted the work creating a contemporary design and interesting exhibition of past and present work.
This first one is Brain Wave with art by Bene Rohlmann
Brain Wave is a Sci-Fi novel by Poul Anderson published as a novel in 1954. If you're curious about the plot of this story, it tells of the achievements and struggles of various people and animals on Earth after it moves out of the energy-dampening field which caused the "CretaceousβPaleogene extinction event", which wiped out all neuron-based life on the planet. The original cover art was created by Richard Powers.
