The Lost Illustrations Of 2001 Part 2

In a post earlier today I mentioned that Kubrick hired two artists to document the making of 2001, the second artist was the then 25 year old Jan Parker. The above illustration was published in the Spring 1966 issue of SIGHT & SOUND to accompany an article by David Robinson on the then concurrently shooting FAHRENHEIT 451 & 2001. The release of the former beat 2001 by a good 17 months.

The picture below first appeared in Piers Bizonys 1994 book 2001 FILMING THE FUTURE. It astounds me that such intriguing & accomplished work has till now been seemingly disregarded.
