This book is a celebration of two films by Willie Doherty: ‘Ghost Story’ (2007), first shown at the 52nd Venice Biennale, and ‘Buried’ (2009) commissioned by and first shown at The Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh. Both films deal with memory, its repression and return, and have the odd sense of timeless urgency that characterises much of Doherty’s work. Reproduced inside are full-page images of stills from each film, with the text of the voice over for ‘Ghost Story’ providing a break at the centre. The book starts with a short introduction by Fiona Bradley and ends with a new text by Doherty entitled – ‘Some Notes on Problems and Possibilities.’
