Installation view: Ken Grimes presented by Ricco/Maresca Gallery, New York

The works of Ken Grimes (b. 1947) are conceptual, never-ending variations on the themes of extraterrestrial intelligence and cosmic coincidence; a window to a world where aliens, flying saucers, UFOs, crop circles, radio telescopes and interstellar signals are an essential part of reality. Grimes’s artistic project strives to prompt viewers into thinking about the existence of aliens and the importance of making contact with them, a quest that in some of his works has resulted in fascinating text-only compositions—one of which the artist can be heard reading in the video work presented in the exhibition.
