"No matter where one looks in an urban setting there are grids to be seen. Whether decorative or functional, grids provide a certain kind of order. While traveling around doing wall drawings in many places, I found grids to photograph. Each city made sewer covers, for instance, that while serving the same purpose are designed in a different way. It is a kind of art made without art in mind (I suppose). On the following pages are photographic projects using the grid of cities and of a wall. The wall is outside the window of the place I have lived in for the past seventeen years. It changes each time I see it and has a constant beauty no matter when seen." (Lewitt/Legg).
