Abundance is a temporary public installation commissioned for the City of San Jose, California by ZER01 – the Art and Technology Network( Under work leader, Camille Utterback). At night, Abundace transforms the city hall plaza into an interactive social space. A video camera mounted on the City Hall captures the movements of people in the…

I was really impressed with the way that Irwin views his pieces and how he feels about them. I thought it was very interesting when he decided to paint something that doesn’t stop at the edge, and also how he doesn’t see himself as a minimalist but he is more focused on a reduction that…

Robert Irwin seemed very optimistic about his work and life in general. I found Irwin’s simplistic concepts very interesting. His work using the reflective plastic sheets and his project using the lights were very simple yet intriguing.  Irwin works with a group of people who all have different skills, some that others may not have….

Even though I wasn’t present last friday, I googled several of Irwin’s works and Pace Wildenstein is one of my favorite. I like it because of the red lights on the wall, it reminded me of candy. I could relate this to the project that my group is working on. One thing that they both…

I really enjoyed watching Robert Irwin develop and create his ideas. On first glance I really didn’t like his work, but after seeing the process he goes through to produce his pieces I began to appreciate his creations. He has very simplistic project ideas that are so big they engulf the viewer. He likes to…

I was really fascinated by Robert Irwin’s work and the way his “final goal is inherently light.” I was especially drawn to the installation made up of florescent lights that spanned the space of an entire wall in his show. The unexpected use of traditional lighting was really striking.I also liked Irwin’s definition of art….

I really enjoyed Robert Irwins’ video and how he emphasizes that the key role if art is humans. I completely agree on his views that art should be something that brings you to a point where you’re aware, and connected you to something you are around all the time but not focusing on that object…

Robert Irwin Had very interesting ideas when it came to his works. He metioned that “art is art and so is everything else”. I thought this was the most interesting because technically art is all around us. We just never notice it because we see it all the time but just not aware of it….

I really loved the video we watched about Robert Irwin and hearing his philosophy on art/life. He wants to make art that makes you aware you’re around it all the time. He stressed the point of not having a frame so that the art is everywhere, it has no end and the viewer is surrounded…

Irwin brought up the topic of art and how it is almost always viewed through a context. In history this context has mostly been conventional. He explained that art has come a long way from political positions and religious topics to art becoming a tool to focus the viewer’s attention. This makes me think of…

tetris meets Arduino from Luyza Pereira on Vimeo. It’s like a mix between Tetris and Dance Dance Revolution. Follow the link for info on how it works!

I find the documentary on Robert Irwin, and his works, very interesting. He wants to eliminate imagery to make his paintings more interesting. When often people try to have their art resemble or relate to things and he is avoiding it. He doesn’t want to have his art have a beginning or an end. His…
