Station Zero Opening Reception

Get ready for Station Zero!

Light Grey Art Lab's newest exhibition will bring you on a journey through the most epic and adventurous ideas in artwork and science fiction. From galaxies light-years away to brain swapping machines, urban technological landscapes to the experimental science labs of the future, this exhibition is all about science, cover art, re-imagined designs.

"God Rising (World Without Stars)" by John DeLucca

Inspired by the beautiful, bizarre, and neon covers of vintage science fiction novels, each artist was given a book, with the challenge to redesign and illustrating the covers. The original book covers will be on display alongside the giant collection of our contemporary revisions: large-scale, awe-inspiring, and celestial posters!

Such an awesome collection of work!
