Ken Grimes is an American artist who uses the subject and symbols of extraterrestrial encounters. He paints signs and symbols of UFOs, crop circles and alien figures, and seeks to understand through collecting, examining, and evaluating their meaning. His paintings and writings document his extensive study on the margins of scientific research, and his work is part of a wide-spread collective fascination with the possibility of alien contact and alien influence in the world.

Works on these pages were included in the gallery's 2008 exhibition  Is there anybody out there?
