Author: Ken Grimes
The paintings of Ken Grimes are strikingly honest, deceptively simple, and decidedly interstellar. Over several decades, Grimes has developed his singular style – using text, numbers, outer space iconography, and geometric shapes painted primarily in stark black and white – to prompt his audience to consider the possibilities and implications of alien contact with earth. This catalogue showcases art from Grimes's long career, one devoted to the mysteries of extraterrestrial life.Influenced by the proliferation of sci-fi media in his youth, Grimes has also continued to be moved by popular culture, a motif which intermingles with his interest in outer space in ways both earnest and irreverent.
ISBN 9781944860554. Anthology Editions. hb. 216 pages. 203 ills. 29.7 x 22.2 cm.
