Scultore, architetto, artista di installazioni, archeologo urbano, David Ireland (1930) è considerato in molti modi ma è impossibile imprigionarlo in un'etichetta: l'artista, che ha scoperto la passione per l'arte in età matura e ha deciso di seguirla, anima e corpo, pensa e affronta l'arte con coraggio in un modo così personale che è arduo definirlo. Il libro nasce da sessanta interviste con l'artista e i suoi amici, colleghi e importanti esponenti del mondo artistico, e prendono l'avvio dalla descrizione della trasformazione radicale della sua casa di San Francisco. Passo passo, si analizzano le installazioni innovative, alle quali hanno collaborato artisti, architetti, un fotografo, una compagnia di danza e amici come in un gioco collettivo.

Paperback. Etat : Near Fine. 1st. 205 pages, illustrations (some colour); 24 cm. PRESENTATION COPY. Signed by the author Betty Klausner, with a personalized inscription, and also signed by the artist David Ireland on the same leaf. A fine copy. *** "'You can't make art by making art,' David Ireland once said, and this statement can be understood as one of the guiding principles in his life and work. Sculptor, architect, installation artist, urban archeologist and much, much more, Ireland is impossible and unnecessary to label. Why label something that aspires to include most everything--or at least to not exclude the possibility of something? Mid-life, Ireland, who was born in 1930, decided to pursue his passion for art, and he went on to produce a body of work so idiosyncratic that it defies definition. Like his life, his working methodology is paradoxical, absurd, ironic and uniquely enriched by humor and humanity. The result of some 80 interviews with the American artist and his friends, family, collaborators and art world colleagues, Touching Time and Space offers an engrossing portrait of a deeply private but unfailingly generous iconoclast. His art practice, teaching, and wry philosophy have profoundly affected many. Beginning with a description of the radical transformation of his home--the legendary 500 Capp Street in San Francisco---author Betty Klausner provides an insightful and often moving narrative that illuminates Ireland's process, work and life." - Publisher.
