Ghost V 1971

Editor: So, we're looking at Alistair Grant's "Ghost V." It’s this rather ethereal print, all subtle gridlines and faded crosses. I’m curious – what do you make of these barely-there shapes? Curator: Ah, yes, a piece that whispers rather than shouts. To me, it’s like a half-remembered dream, a fleeting impression. The grid, usually so rigid, becomes a support for something intangible, something lost in translation. It makes me wonder, what are these ghosts of? Editor: Maybe ideas, or memories? I hadn't thought of the grid as a support before. Curator: Precisely! And aren’t we all, in some ways, supported by the structures we build, the very lines we draw for ourselves? Food for thought, eh? Editor: Absolutely! It really changes how I see it. Curator: Art's like that; the more you look, the more it reveals.
