Description
Baphomet Tarot, the Tarot of the underworld, is a succession of paintings by the Swiss Artist, designer and Oscar-Award winner H.R. Giger, Baphomet introduces us to the oldest destiny of mankind, visions of birth and death, and love and hate in the drama of life.
Giger`s art is interpreted by philosopher-magician Akron. To him Tarot is like an inexhaustible mine of symbols, suited to manifest Giger`s aesthetics of apocalypse in literary style. Akron resorts to the tradition of the Tarot in order to convey the messages of Baphomet - a medieval secret symbol - which is of special significance in Giger`s work.
