Robert Irwin is an that basis his work on the basis of the ability to interpret information and surroundings from light and space. He is one of the pioneers in the minimulist movements in the 1970's. I think his work is eloquent and subtle. He has an ability to manipulate light and the perception of that light in such a way that is almost shockingly beautiful.
His work comes across so simple visually, yet that i think is what makes him brilliant. In reading his book Seeing is Forgetting the Name of the Thing One Sees, seeing his work takes on a whole new perception. Because his work is so subtle, it for me has become a way of understanding and experiencing his work.
