A bit of visual fizzle for the weekend, courtesy the mighty aggregation powers of MetaFilter. Born In Concrete is the gallery/blog of one Derek Stenning, who makes these rather super (if somewhat grim) Soviet-inspired space art posters:

Lots more at the site itself, so go take a look. Someone in the MetaFilter comments thread suggested Stenning should be doing graphic novels of Stanislav Lem titles; I’d add Ken MacLeod’s Fall Revolution series to that suggestion. Heck, get the guy doing commissions for space opera novel jackets; that’s a strong visual hook, right there.
