John Berkey (update)

John Berkey
John Berkey, who died in 2008, was one of the premiere space artists. His distinctive style graced the covers and interiors of a wide variety of publications with visionary images of the future.

Berkey had a wider range of style and subject matter than is widely known. Since my article about John Berkey in 2006, a number of additional places to view his images have cropped up on the web.

The online gallery at ArtOrg.info is still the best, but there have been interesting additions, like the posts on Pinkoski.com that show both familiar space art and rare or simply unfamiliar work by Berkey, like his cover for a 1989 Eddie Bauer Catalog, (image above, bottom).

I’ve listed some other resources below.

  1. WOW! You started the year off right!

  2. As a kid, I had a Mead Trapper Keeper binder with one of his spaceship images on it. Loved his art as a kid… still do. Thanks for this. 🙂
