Description
Robert McCall Signature Final Concept Artwork for 2001: A Space Odyssey (MGM, 1968). Vintage original duotone artwork accomplished in mixed media on heavy weight artist's board measuring 28" x 20". This artwork is nearly identical to the key color poster artwork for the film with a Pan Am Clipper approaching the wheel-shaped space station. Created by noted NASA space artist Robert McCall, celebrated for his production illustration on 2001: A Space Odyssey, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, U.S. postage stamps, NASA mission patches, as well as murals which grace the walls of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, National Gallery of Art, The Pentagon, Epcot, and Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center. McCall was known for creating incredible concept artworks he would present to the producers, and, once approved, he would create a new painting based exactly on his final approved concept. Monumentally important production artwork from this seminal science fiction epic. Exhibiting age, bumped corners, tape remnants from matting, and production wear. Comes with a COA from Heritage Auctions. From the Collection of Greg Jein.More Information: Note: movie poster for display purposes only, not included in lot.
