When this book first appeared in 1982, it introduced readers to
Robert Irwin, the Los Angeles artist 'who one day got hooked on his
own curiosity and decided to live it'. Now expanded to include six
additional chapters and twenty-four pages of color plates, "Seeing
Is Forgetting the Name of the Thing One Sees" chronicles three
decades of conversation between Lawrence Weschler and light and
space master Irwin. It surveys many of Irwin's site-conditioned
projects - in particular the Central Gardens at the Getty Museum
(the subject of an epic battle with the site's principal architect,
Richard Meier) and the design that transformed an abandoned Hudson
Valley factory into Dia's new Beacon campus - enhancing what many
had already considered the best book ever on an artist.
