  • Resumen

  • Unlikely Objects, Mostly (2022) A collection of everyday objects followed Alasdair Gray for long periods across the different rooms of his life, often appearing within the imagined worlds he conjured up as familiar motifs and devices. They now occupy prominent places within the Alasdair Gray Archive. In this new podcast series, we use these objects to draw together memories from Alasdair’s friends, colleagues and collaborators. In doing so, we explore deeper connections between the artist’s own assembled world, his day-to-day practice, his home city and his commitment to socialism. Unlikely Objects Mostly is produced by Christopher Silver for the Alasdair Gray Archive, with support from the Scottish Graduate School of Arts and Humanities, Creative Scotland and research assistance from Kim Crowley.

    2: Unlikely Objects Mostly
    Sep 2 2022
    The second episode of Unlikely Objects Mostly looks at Alasdair's chessboard and the role chess played in his practice: uncovering the game's pivotal role in the making of the Hillhead Subway mural and the novel Poor Things. It then goes on to explore the artist's radical openness to other people and fascination with the way they work: an interest that informs the game of chess and the companionable nature of so much of Alasdair's work. Unlikely Objects Mostly is produced by Christopher Silver for the Alasdair Gray Archive, with support from the Scottish Graduate School of Arts and Humanities, Creative Scotland and research assistance from Kim Crowley.
